Tamil Nadu passes resolution seeking timeframe for Governors to clear bills
The Tamil Nadu assembly has passed a resolution urging the Centre and President to fix a timeframe for governors to approve bills adopted by the House, following a political row sparked by remarks made by Governor R N Ravi. The resolution accused Ravi of not approving certain bills due to his "whims and fancies" and converting Raj Bhavan into a "political bhavan". The governor is yet to give his assent to nearly 20 bills cleared by the state cabinet since he took office in September 2021.
