CM questions guv over bills being held 'hostage' by Raj Bhavan

CHIEF Minister MK Stalin on Friday slammed Governor RN Ravi while addressing the platinum jubilee of the Indian Union Muslim League (IUML) here claiming Ravi was showing a lethargic attitude towards the bills passed by the state government.

Stalin recalled the close association of the Muslim League party and its leaders with the DMK and former CM M Karunanidhi. He said, "The governor refused to give his assent even for the bill to ban online gambling. Four months later he says that the state government has no right to pass such legislation."
