The high drama on the floor of the House soon snowballed into a heated debate online between the supporters and critics of the ruling DMK, even as “#GetOutRavi” was trending on Twitter, with many calling for the ouster of Ravi from the gubernatorial post.
However, the state BJP threw its weight behind Ravi, describing as “disrespectful and amateurish,” Stalin moving a resolution against the Governor whilst Ravi was still seated in the House.
