Tamil Nadu Governor asks students to chant Jai Shri Ram, sparks row

Tamil Nadu Governor R N Ravi has stirred controversy after urging students to chant "Jai Shri Ram" during an event at a private engineering college in Madurai on Saturday.

Ravi, who was attending the event as chief guest, concluded his speech by asking the students to repeat the religious slogan after him.

The move drew sharp criticism from opposition leaders, with Congress MLA JMH Hassan Maulaana calling the Governor's actions "highly condemnable."
