Tamilisai Soundararajan, the Telangana Governor was speaking to reporters after attending the convocation ceremony of a private college near Kalapatti in Coimbatore.
Coimbatore: Telangana Governor and Puducherry Lieutenant Governor Tamilisai Soundararajan attended the convocation of a private college on Kalapatti Road in Coimbatore district.
Speaking to reporters after the convocation ceremony, Tamilisai Soundararajan said, "Our country is growing rapidly. We are going to lead the G20 and Vivekananda's dream of India being the guru of the world is going to be fulfilled. The Governor of Tamil Nadu has to answer for the delay in approving the law against online rummy.
Everyone has a single opinion that there should be no online rummy. But there may be a technical reason for this approval and therefore he has to answer. In Telangana, it is the Government that is at odds and the Governor is not contradictory."
"I also have some legal approval. In particular, there has been a legal approval for employment. There are job opportunities. The old system in Telangana has been brought into effect with a completely different change. I will see if this will benefit the people and sign it.
Though as the Governor, we have the right to sign, are we signing an endorsement of the right law, which will benefit the people? Even when the Governor's address was denied for political reasons, I immediately signed that people should not be affected even in the budget presentation the next day. In my opinion, some people are criticizing here because they do not understand it," she explained.
Commenting on various issues in Tamil Nadu, Tamilisai Soundararajan said, "The Governor can meet the people, though the former Chief Minister V Narayanasamy in Puducherry is critical of it. But many problems are solved by meeting people. It does not matter if there is criticism, our work will continue. I do not know the real nature of the Tamil Nadu online rummy ban law.
The Governor of Tamil Nadu does not seem to have spoken about a particular religion. If everyone has to be secular, the Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu should also be secular. The Chief Minister is biased in greeting the people during festivals. We are stating that people belonging to a particular religion have not been greeted by the Chief Minister."
