On the second day of the winter session of Parliament on Thursday leaders of all Opposition parties staged a walk out of Lok Sabha alleging that they were not allowed to raise various issues including the one related to Tamil Nadu Governor R N Ravi.

Speaker Om Birla has refused to admit notices by the Opposition including one over the Maharashtra-Karnataka border row. Congress Manicka Tagore earlier in the day gave an adjournment motion for the purpose of discussing “the activities of the Tamil Nadu Governor”. “…he keeps more than 22 Bills enacted by the State Government at abeyance without any approval or to send the same to the consideration of Hon’ble President.

For example, to Bills like NEET Exemption Bill and the Tamil Nadu Prohibition of Online Gambling and Regulation of Online Games Act, 2022 enacted by the State Government, the Governor has neither granted his consent nor sent to Hon’bIe President. Such activity of the Governor has led to state administration to be at standstill at every initiatives for the people of the state,” stated the letter from Tagore addressed to Secretary General Lok Sabha.
