Speaker A.N. Shamseer said he believed that Governor Arif Mohammed Khan would sign the Bills passed by the Kerala Assembly. He was responding to a query at a Meet-the-Press organised by the Kannur Press Club here on Friday. The Speaker said the Governor may have his opinions, but he knew the administrative structure well.
Mr. Khan had recently objected to a new set of Bills passed by the Assembly. The Governor had accused the State government of attempting to legalise all illegalities, adding that he was not a mere rubber stamp. Mr. Shamseer said the 2015 Assembly ruckus should not have happened. “It happened under special circumstances. It will be better if such incidents do not recur,” he said.
