On October 23, a car with two gas cylinders exploded near a temple in the Coimbatore district. The man Jameesha Mubin who was driving the car died on the spot. Later, a probe revealed that Mubin was already questioned by National Investigation Agency (NIA) in connection with his alleged links to ISIS.

The Governor is also expected to meet Union Home Minister Amit Shah regarding the issue.

Following the request, Congress has agreed to sign the memorandum. The CPI-M General Secretary Sitara, Yechury also requested like-minded parties to launch a protest against Governors for the "anti-constitutional" activities. 

Tamil Nadu Governor and CM Stalin have always been at crossroads over several issues including National Eligibility Cum Entrance Exam (NEET) and release of six convicts in former Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi assassination case.
