Failure of democratic system if governor doesn't grant assent to bills second time: TN to SC

IndiaTimes Wednesday, 5 February 2025
The Tamil Nadu government told the supreme court that governor R N Ravi’s refusal to assent to bills passed for the second time undermines democracy. The court, hearing petitions on the issue, noted the state and people were suffering. Legal experts argued that constitutional provisions mandate the governor to grant assent after reconsideration. The dispute, involving 10 re-adopted bills, remains unresolved, with further hearings set for February 6.
