Chennai, Feb 12 (Reporter) For the second successive year, Tamil Nadu Governor R.N.Ravi skipped reading the full text of his customary New Year address, prepared by the State government, on the opening day of the Legislative Assembly session on Monday, before leaving the House in a huff without waiting for the recital of National Anthem after the government chose to move a resolution seeking to retain the address prepared by it and distributed to the members in the Assembly records. Unlike last year, when the Governor read out a majority portion of the speech prepared by the government and skipped a few points towards the fag end of his address, deviated from it and staged a walk out, this year, the Governor spoke for just two minutes before concluding his address. The Governor, who was accorded a red carpet welcome to the House, began his address by greeting Speaker M.Appavu, Chief Minister M.K.Stalin, Members of the House and the people of Tamil Nadu and the media, and read out the first paragraph which contained a Kural (738) of the renowned Saint Tamil poet Thiruvalluvar. Later, Mr Appavu told reporters that except the Paragraph one that contained mention about Tirukkural (738), which was read out by Mr Ravi, all the remarks made by him and the Governor were expunged from the Assembly records.
