Thiruvananthapuram/Hyderabad, Nov 2 (Maxim News): The Kerala government has moved a Writ petition in the Supreme Court against Governor Arif Mohammed Khan for alleged inaction on his part to eight bills passed by the state legislature and presented to the Governor for his assent under Article 200 of the Constitution.
