At a youth conference this month, DMK called for abolition of post of governor. The party’s dislike of the post transcends mere political differences & is rooted in its idea of federalism.
The DMK govt has been at loggerheads with Governor T.N. Ravi for sitting on key bills, among which is one that seeks to curb his power as universities' chancellor.
In its petition in SC, Tamil Nadu has sought direction to governor to dispose of all pending bills & also asked court to fix time limit for governor to consider bills.
SC and expert panel have previously held that dominant role cannot be ascribed to governor, who is a ceremonial head and not intended to be a ‘parallel administration’.
In its plea, the TN govt has sought to direct the Governor to dispose of all the bills, files & govt orders forwarded by the state assembly and govt that are pending with his office.
The deaths of a 19-year-old student & his father within three days have put focus on politics surrounding the medical entrance exam. Both DMK, AIADMK govts adopted anti-NEET bills.
While Raj Bhavan has said Tamil Nadu's DMK govt is yet to submit 'authenticated copy of investigation report' in 1 case, govt has questioned whether Ravi was trying to protect minister.
In a tweet, Tamil Nadu BJP chief Annamalai reminds CM how he had sought Balaji's dismissal over corruption charges 5 yrs ago when he was in Opposition.
Ravi order to dismiss Senthil Balaji, now in abeyance, called 'unconstitutional'. SC previously held governor must act on advice of council of ministers barring ‘exceptional circumstances’.
