"The governor herself was the Bharatiya Janata Party Chief in Tamil Nadu and to become a governor, the political background does not matter," he said.

"But does the background hold any importance for becoming an MLC?" he asked.

KTR said that he read in the newspaper that the governor's claims for not allowing Reddy to become MLC because he had a political background.

He also mentioned that they never had any issues when E. S. L. Narasimhan was the governor of the state, nor do they have any now. (ANI)
