We had nauseating, disgusting levels of corruption in Tamil Nadu under the DMK. This is known to the entire Universe, not some grand secret.
It reached such Himalayan heights, their own Finance Minister, someone not corrupt who was caught up with the corrupt crowd, was complaining about it (sadly for him his remarks became public and he was demoted to became the IT Minister).
This is not about ideology.
Even the Marxists of Kerala, then allied with the DMK, would say how deeply corrupt the DMK was.
I have always appreciated people like Shri Balagopal, the former Finance Minister of Kerala, for his devoted public service. I am sure he and I will not agree on political philosophy or ideology but I deeply respect him.
If the DMK truly wants to introspect, they must start with their corruption.
Instead, they spend their time attacking a messenger like me as a TVK stooge or a Brahmin or a Sanghi and so on.
May be they can study Kural 423: focus on the message, even if the message comes from a "Brahmin Sanghi TVK stooge" like me:
எப்பொருள் யார்யார்வாய்க் கேட்பினும் அப்பொருள்
மெய்ப்பொருள் காண்ப தறிவு.
Our rural school Kalaivani Kalvi Maiyam, which provides completely free education to rural children, faced delays getting approvals from the previous government. Of course, significant money was demanded and we were told that was the only way, even if it is a completely free school.
After @TVKVijayHQ came to power, approvals have happened quickly and automatically.
I am very happy to appreciate this positive development in our state. Thank you Thiru Vijay Avl for this refreshing change🙏
To brand Annamalai as impatient is ridiculous and downright foolish. Party sacrificed him for an alliance with ADMK. In playing that huge risk impatient BJP lost big. ADMK alliance did not deliver the right results. Impatience of BJP is the right description.
#Annamalai - The easier route is to make some compromises and become a central minister to make a name for himself at the national level, but he chooses the harder terrain where the risk of failing is high. This choice defines who he is.
Special 👏👏👏 for this alone.
