<\/p>\n

The promulgation of the ordinance means that Tamil Nadu government can now permit the opening of the vadivasal at Alanganallur, and let the bulls out for the conduct of jallikattu.

Though the ordinance will allow TN to allow jallikattu, the ordinance will have to be substituted with a law. within the next six weeks. The TN assembly will have to pass a bill on the same grounds. After getting Governor’s assent, the bill will be sent to the President. The bill will become a law once the President accords sanction.
