CAA / Governor asked the Kerala government the report on going Supreme Court, saying – I am not a mute spectator
Thiruvananthapuram. Governor Arif Mohammad Khan has expressed reservations over the Kerala government’s decision to move the Supreme Court against the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA). The governor said that the government has taken this step without consulting them and I will not continue to watch all this as a mute spectator. Sources in Raj Bhavan told the news agency that the governor has sought a report from the state chief secretary.
Governor Arif Mohammed said, “This is not a private fight, but the constitution should remain intact. I will ensure that the law and rules of the country are upheld.” A month ago, the Kerala Assembly passed a resolution repealing the CAA. Since then there has been a conflict between the Raj Bhavan and the state government.
The governor said – I am not just a stomp
Recently, Arif Mohammad Khan had expressed displeasure over the working style of the Kerala government. He said, “I have no displeasure with the government going to the Supreme Court, but the government should have taken care of the protocol. Despite being the constitutional head of state, I came to know it through the newspaper. I am not just a rubber stamp. ‘
Kerala had said – CAA against secularism
The Kerala government went to the Supreme Court against the CAA last week. Kerala had called the law against constitutional rights. The Kerala government had said- We will continue our fight against the law, as it is going to harm the secularism and democracy of the country. Apart from Kerala, the Punjab Assembly has also passed a resolution against the CAA. At the same time, non-BJP ruled states like Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, West Bengal and Maharashtra have already spoken about not implementing it.
