Tamil Nadu Minister S. Regupathy addressed the controversy surrounding Governor R.N. Ravi’s walkout from the state Assembly, clarifying claims that the Governor’s microphone had been switched off during proceedings.
The minister said the allegations were inaccurate and noted that the Governor’s address had already been approved. He added that if the Governor had any issues with the speech, he could have chosen to boycott the session rather than raising procedural disputes.
Regupathy’s comments reflect the state government’s position that the Governor’s actions were unnecessary, emphasizing that legislative protocols and constitutional norms should be respected even amid disagreements.
