West Bengal, led by the Trinamool Congress, and Kerala, governed by the CPM’s LDF, have faced prolonged disputes with their respective governors over the delay in assent to bills passed by their legislative assemblies.

The Trinamool Congress-ruled West Bengal and the CPM-led LDF government in Kerala have faced prolonged stand-offs with their governors.
