Thirumavalavan also objected to the Governor seeking a report from the state Chief Secretary regarding the welfare schemes of the government. 

 

He called upon the DMK government to resist the Governor's attempts and urged it to "protect" the rights of the people.

Thirumavalavan said that the party would conduct an awareness programmes across the state to educate people on the moves of the Governor and the political interference on the policies and programmes of an elected government.
