A controversy has sparked in Tamil Nadu after a line from the state anthem was omitted during a government event attended by Governor RN Ravi. Chief Minister MK Stalin accused the governor of disrespecting Tamil culture and demanded his recall, referring to the incident as a deliberate act. The governor has rejected these claims, stating he always recites the full anthem with devotion and that Stalin's accusations are damaging to the dignity of the chief minister's office. This disagreement touches upon larger issues of linguistic and cultural importance in the state's political landscape.
