Stalin fires back, Tamil Nadu house re-adopts all 10 bills returned by governor

The Tamil Nadu assembly has re-adopted 10 bills that were previously returned by the governor, even as Chief Minister M K Stalin criticized the governor for withholding the bills based on his "whims and fancies."

The government has taken up the issue with the President and the Prime Minister and has also approached the Supreme Court.
