In a letter, Governor RN Ravi on Thursday said, "You may refer to my D.O. Letter No.0013/RBTN/2023 of today (29.06.2023) regarding the status of Thiru V. Senthil Balaji. In this regard, I have been advised by the Hon'ble Union Minister of Home Affairs that it would be prudent to seek the opinion of the Attorney General also. Accordingly, I am approaching the Attorney General for his opinion. Meanwhile, the order of dismissal of the minister Thiru V.Senthil Balaji may be kept in abeyance until further communication from me."
The DMK, however, said that Senthil Balaji would continue as a Minister. The issue cropped up after Minister Senthil Balaji was arrested by ED in a cash-for-job scam.
Further, the DMK government has also been insisting Ravi for sanction to prosecute ex-AIADMK ministers for alleged corruption, as a report on PTI.
