Mr Thennarasu said, "We have told the Governor that his delay in forwarding the bill to the Union Government for President's assent is disrespecting the assembly and people's sentiment and the government thinks it would not able to participate in the At Home Reception".
In a major embarrassment to Tamil Nadu Governor RN Ravi, the MK Stalin government officially boycotted his "At Home Reception" over what they called his delay in forwarding the NEET Exemption bill to the Union Government even after the Tamil Nadu assembly passed it unanimously twice.
The government's stand was officially communicated to the Governor by Industries Minister Thangam Thennarasu and Health Minister Ma Subramanian.
Mr Thennarasu said, "We have told the Governor that his delay in forwarding the bill to the Union Government for President's assent is disrespecting the assembly and people's sentiment and the government thinks it would not able to participate in the At Home Reception".
"It is regrettable that the Governor has not given any timeline to forward the bill," he added.
