The Kerala government is determined to seek legal remedy on the constitutional issue of assent to Bills from the Supreme Court despite Governor Arif Mohammed Khan signing all Bills presented before him. Mr. Khan had signed five pending Bills recently.
The State government had challenged the act of Governor Arif Mohammed Khan referring seven Bills to the President after holding them for long and the act of President Droupadi Murmu withholding her assent to three Bills. The State had also sought guidelines for the Governors to act on the Bills passed by the State Legislatures.
