Vaiko seeks guv’s resignation

MDMK general secretary Vaiko on Thursday demanded the resignation of governor R N Ravi for his remarks against Dravidian model of governance. Describing chief minister M K Stalin’s ‘good governance’ based on the model as a ‘pioneer’ for other states, Vaiko told reporters in Trichy that governor Ravi was acting as if he was ruling the state.

“As far as Tamil Nadu is concerned, none of his opinions can be accepted. He acts like an agent of BJP. If he wants to be an agent of hindutva, he can work for them after he resigns as governor.

Or, he should be sacked,” Vaiko said. Ravi had termed the Dravidian model an expired ideology in an interview to The Times of India recently.

Vaiko said that continuation of governor Ravi in his post will not augur well for Tamil Nadu. On the reshuffling of Tamil Nadu cabinet, Vaiko said the chief minister Stalin did what Tamil Nadu needed.
