Tamil Nadu Speaker sparks fury by calling Governor the ‘only terrorist’ in fiery debate

A heated exchange has erupted between BJP leader K. Annamalai and Tamil Nadu Legislative Assembly Speaker M. Appavu over claims of terrorism in the state. The dispute began after Appavu dismissed security concerns and labelled Governor R. N. Ravi as the 'only terrorist' in Tamil Nadu.

Speaking in the Assembly, Speaker M. Appavu rejected any suggestion of terrorism or law and order problems in Tamil Nadu. He went further by calling Governor R. N. Ravi the 'only terrorist' in the region.

The clash between Annamalai and Appavu underscores deep political divisions over security in Tamil Nadu. While the BJP cites past incidents and NIA actions, the state government continues to deny any ongoing terror-related concerns. The debate follows years of controversy, including the disputed 1998 funeral and recent high-profile cases.
