Two Bills passed by the Tamil Nadu Assembly during the erstwhile AIADMK government, headed by Edappadi K Palaniswami, are among the 13 pieces of legislation pending with the Governor, according to the Tamil Nadu Law Department.
Documents provided in response to an application filed under the Right to Information Act by The Hindu showed the Governor is yet to give assent to the Tamil Nadu Fisheries University (Amendment) Bill, 2020, and the Tamil Nadu Veterinary and Animal Sciences University (Amendment) Bill, 2020. These two Bills were sent to the Raj Bhavan for assent on January 13 and 18, 2020, respectively, when Banwarilal Purohit was the Governor during the AIADMK government.
