Kerala governor nod for December 31 House session on farm laws
Description
THIRUVANATHAPURAM: Kerala governor Arif Mohammad Khan has acceded to a second request by the state government to convene a special onehour assembly session on December 31 to pass a resolution against the new farm laws. He had earlier rejected the LDF government’s request to convene a session on December 23. The governor had written an open letter to CM Pinarayi Vijayan, accusing the government of keeping him in the dark about the reason behind convening a special assembly session. Khan relented only after Speaker P Sreeramakrishnan and ministers A K Balan and V S Sunilkumar met with him to convey the message that the government does not want to put its relations with Raj Bhavan under strain. The CM personally wrote to the governor, seeking his consent to convene the special assembly session on December 31.
