10 Tamil Nadu Bills Become Law Without Governor Consent After Big Verdict
Ten bills - each cleared twice over by the Tamil Nadu government but denied assent by Governor RN Ravi since 2020, amid his hostile stand-off with the ruling DMK - have finally become laws.
And, in a historic moment, they became laws without a sign-off from the Governor or President Droupadi Murmu, after the Supreme Court this week ruled the former's withholding of assent "illegal", and said he could not reserve bills for Ms Murmu after denying assent.
