Tamil Nadu Governor R.N. Ravi hosted the annual Independence Day reception at Raj Bhavan on Monday.
Chief Minister M.K. Stalin, Speaker of Legislative Assembly M. Appavu, Chief Justice of Madras High Court Munishwar Nath Bhandari, Chief Secretary V. Irai Anbu, Ministers, MLAs, senior officials and dignitaries from various walks of life attended the reception.
It may be recalled that Mr. Stalin and other Cabinet Ministers boycotted the last ‘At Home’ reception hosted by the Governor in Raj Bhavan on April 14, 2022, owing to the controversy surrounding the inordinate delay by the Governor in deciding on the Bill to exempt NEET. The reception, which ought to have happened on Republic Day, was postponed to April because of the third wave of COVID-19.
