Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M K Stalin submitted a motion in the state Assembly on Saturday to reconsider 10 Bills previously passed by the House and returned by State Governor R N Ravi.


Moving the resolution, Stalin said Ravi had returned the Bills without giving any reasons, mentioning "I withhold Assent" to them.


While 2 bills each were adopted by the House in 2020 and 2023, six others were passed last year.


Further, CM also made a scathing attack on Ravi by alleging that the Governor was keen to stop the initiatives of the government.


"He returned the Bills due to his personal whims and fancies...it is undemocratic and anti-people to not give assent" to them, the CM said, as per PTI.


Stalin also alleged that through Governors non-BJP ruled states were being targeted by the Centre.


Governor RN Ravi and Tamil Nadu government had been in loggerheads for a long time now.
