Thiruvananthapuram, Jan 6 (TIWN): With Kerala Governor Arif Mohammed Khan refusing to sign a Bill, passed by the Kerala Legislative Assembly last month, that seeks the removal of the Governor as the Chancellor of all the Universities in the state, and deciding to send it to President Droupadi Murmu for her assent, an expert opined that in this case, it’s not required.
Former secretary general of the 14th and 15th Lok Sabha P.D.T. Achary said there are certain issues where the Governor need to send it to the President to get her assent.
“However in this case, there is no need for him to send it to the President for her assent as this is an issue that’s concerning State Universities and for it, an assent from the President is not required,” said Achary.
“There are no rules that the Governor should be the chancellor of Universities and there are states which do not have such a norm,” said Achary.
