<p>The AIADMK and PMK, the opposition parties, congratulated R N Ravi on his appointment as Governor of Tamil Nadu on Friday, but the Congress&#8217; state unit questioned the Centre&#8217;s &#8220;intention&#8221; in making the decision, questioning whether it was a ploy to destabilize the MK Stalin-led DMK administration.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Former IPS officer Kiran Bedi, according to TNCC President K S Alagiri, created &#8220;many roadblocks&#8221; in neighboring Puducherry after being appointed as Lt Governor when the Congress was in power there, preventing &#8220;several welfare schemes&#8221; from being implemented. Ravi received greetings from top AIADMK leaders O Panneerselvam and K Palaniswami.</p>
