The PM took to his Twitter handle to make these statements. The PM was making a reference to Jallikattu or the bull-taming sport.

The PM during a meeting with Tamil Nadu Chief Minister O Paneerselvam earlier this week had assured that his government would support any effort taken by the state government.

A day after the meeting a draft ordinance to allow Jallikattu was prepared by the state government and given to the Centre. The same was cleared by the Centre and now will be placed before the President of India Pranab Mukerjee, who would need to promulgate the ordinance.
