US EditionHave Faced More Challenges than Anna, Kalaignar and Jayalalithaa From Governor: CM Stalin in Tamil Nadu Assembly
- On Tuesday, Governor R N Ravi refused to read the government-prepared address in the Tamil Nadu Legislative Assembly, citing 'inaccuracies'; Speaker Appavu read the Tamil version as the ceremony included 'Tamil Thai Vazthu' and the National Anthem.
- Chief Minister M.K. Stalin rebutted the move by citing 11.19 per cent growth last financial year, which the Centre acknowledged, and challenged the Governor to question the Union government and its statistics department.
- Stalin rejected any lessons on unity and patriotism, saying members of the Tamil Nadu Assembly are `not inferior to anyone in national unity and patriotism` and called the Governor's refusal an insult to the Governor's office and `desecrating the Constitution of India`.
- Stalin warned that repeated walkouts by Governor R N Ravi over three years amount to a challenge to democracy, contrasting this with past Governors who did not provoke conflict.
- Pointing to his five-year record, Stalin warned against authoritarian moves by those he called `anti-nationals`, saying the government elected by crores of people meets their aspirations and will not accept patriotism lessons.
