Coimbatore: AMMK General Secretary TTV Dhinakaran has criticized that Tamil Nadu has changed from being a great state into a cinema state.
He arrived in Coimbatore by flight from Chennai and told reporters at the airport, “Under Dravidian governments, Tamil Nadu had been one of the important and developed states in India. Rule alternated between the DMK and the AIADMK. Although various development projects were brought in, because the people desired change and due to rivalry and jealousy, they made a huge mistake and have placed in power those who should not be in office now. Tamil Nadu, which was a great state, has today become a cinema state.
Young men and young women have voted in the hope that a film hero would bring about change. Have you ever heard of a Deputy Speaker attacking someone? News is now coming out to a shameful extent.
There are reports that a TVK MLA sent an inappropriate text message to the district collector and tried to meet him while intoxicated. But has any action been taken so far? They have made ministers out of people who sold tickets in black, Vijay fans, and others with no qualifications whatsoever, even people who do not know how to speak their own mother tongue, Tamil, properly.
Vijay has no qualification to be compared with MGR. It is true that Vijay acted as a hero in cinema. But in reality, he himself said before the election that he is a villain. In a democracy, anyone can enter politics. But the political experience, ideology, and personal discipline they need are important. In Assam, a party formed a government without a base. Everyone knows what happened to that party. At present, personal discipline has deteriorated.
Anna and Kamarajar have emphasized that personal integrity is very important in politics. People should pay attention to how those in power act. Such mistakes should be prevented from happening in the future. I am in the National Democratic Alliance. The AIADMK had won in all five constituencies where by-elections are to be held. Therefore, it would be fair for the AIADMK to contest in those constituencies.
The title of the film Sandiyar has no connection with any particular community. Therefore, the issue surrounding this name is unnecessary. Krishnasamy should reconsider this matter.
Such corruption should not have taken place under the name of Periyar Arivulagam. Whoever has committed the wrongdoing must face appropriate action. The people are becoming fully aware of the government’s functioning. You are asking about bringing a no-confidence motion. Even if this government is left as it is, it will collapse on its own.
Our wish is to restore Jayalalithaa’s rule. For that, we will stand by the AIADMK and work wholeheartedly. The reason Prime Minister Modi continues to be Prime Minister is because he provided excellent governance in Gujarat. He has been functioning beyond caste and religion. Because of the good governance he delivered in Gujarat, his fame spread across India. Vijay has only just entered politics. But see for yourselves how much Tamil Nadu has been affected in just six months,” Dhinakaran said.
