Tamil Nadu governor RN Ravi has turned the domain of higher education in the state into a virtual turf war with the government of MK Stalin, leaving many state-run universities headless without a Vice-Chancellor.
The omission of a line containing the word ‘Dravida’ during the rendition of the Tamil invocation at an official event, presided over by Governor RN Ravi, has sparked a political controversy.
Their confrontations with the respective state governments included stalling of Bills and unilateral appointment or extension of term of Vice Chancellors and others in universities, which have dragged them to the Supreme Court.
In his campaign speeches, he had made the alleged controversial remarks on the state government and Karunanidhi. He is being brought to Trichy for further questioning, police said.
