FOLLOWING the drama witnessed in the Assembly on Monday, with Governor RN Ravi walking out without delivering his customary address, the Opposition parties blamed the state for forcing the governor to do so. Meanwhile, allies of the ruling DMK criticised Ravi with some of them urging the union government to recall him.

Leader of the Opposition and AIADMK general secretary Edappadi K Palaniswami alleged that the ruling DMK is acting with the intention of preventing the governor from speaking. Moreover, he said, "For the past four years, the government has only repeated the same points from previous speeches, without introducing anything fresh or meaningful."
