Yet again Tamil Nadu governor RN Ravi is butting heads with the DMK governments in the state, and newspapers across India had plenty to say.
In the latest chapter on June 29, Ravi “dismissed” DMK minister V Senthil Balaji from the council of ministers after his arrest by the ED in a cash-for-jobs scam. Chief minister MK Stalin had retained him as minister regardless – but Ravi dismissed him without consulting the CM. In a press release, he claimed Balaji had been “influencing the investigation and abusing the due process of law and justice”.
