In a statement issued here, Anbu said he had sent a letter to all the department heads to gather data about various social welfare schemes implemented in the state to apprise new Governor R.N. Ravi.
 It is normal administrative practice to instruct the departments to collect such data, he added.

 The opposition parties also opposed Purohit visiting districts and interacting with the officials.
