Opposition leader Udhayanidhi Stalin was arrested yesterday for speaking wrongly about Chief Minister Vijay. Following a court order, he was interrogated and released last night itself.
After that, he came to Chennai. He met DMK leader M.K. Stalin in person. Having sharply criticized the TVK government right at the Tiruchi airport, he has now also released a post expressing condemnation.

He said, "The sofa-model government, which is incapable of easing the suffering of farmers, has arrested me to divert attention from the problems. They spread slander against me by using the ruling party's abusive warriors, claiming that I used inappropriate words at the Thanjavur protest.
Thinking they could satisfy someone by filing false cases and harassing me by making me travel from Chennai to Thanjavur, they tried to do so. Even after arresting me, I looked at the media and said that I see this arrest as a joke, and then I came away."
I did not run away out of fear upon seeing the police. But the nation knows that today’s Chief Minister, even when 41 people died in Karur, ran headlong without even meeting their families or the media, fearing that he might be arrested.
Even after so many lives were lost in Karur, this was the man who went to Malaysia within the next month for film promotion and danced wildly. The Chief Minister may be afraid of arrest. I am not afraid of any of that. I am the grandson of Kalaignar.
Muthuvel Karunanidhi Stalin’s son. If fighting for farmers means getting arrested, I will be arrested not just once, but even 100 times. If I am taken more than 300 kilometers, even 3,000 kilometers, for the welfare of farmers, I am ready to go.
Your oppression will never stop our public service work for even a single day. I express my gratitude to the leaders of various political parties, including the friendly movements that condemned my arrest, and to the party comrades across Tamil Nadu who showed solidarity in support of me," he noted in a post.
