SC verdict against governor only the beginning

CHENNAI: DMK president and Chief Minister MK Stalin, in a letter to the party cadre which he called ‘letter of victory’ on Thursday, said the Supreme Court verdict against the governor in the case filed by the state government was just a beginning, adding the legal battle against NEET will continue. He also stressed that the judgment will be a precedent for other state governments that are legally fighting against the governor’s transgressions.

Referring to former CM CN Annadurai saying that Parliament should be a collection of states’ sentiments and also the ‘state autonomy’ resolution proposed by former CM Karunanidhi in the state assembly, Stalin wrote, “Whenever state rights face threat, as the president of DMK and the CM of Tamil Nadu, I will be at the forefront of protecting them.”
