Demanding an apology from Chief Minister M. K. Stalin, Union Minister L Murugan said on Friday that by not greeting the people on Deepavali, the CM was practising a modern form of ‘untouchability’.
Speaking to reporters, he said that when millions of people celebrated Deepavali, signifying the end of evil forces, the CM should have greeted the people on the occasion. “Though, Mr Stalin had greeted people celebrating other festivals, he did not greet the Hindus, for whom Deepavali was an important event,” he said and demanded an explanation.
Senior BJP leader and former Telangana Governor Tamilisai Soundararajan on Saturday (November 23, 2024) said the landslide victory of the Mahayuti alliance in the Maharashtra Assembly election was historic, and that it reflected people’s mindset across the country. She added that the DMK would be unseated from power in the 2026 Assembly election in Tamil Nadu and that the BJP would be the reason for it.
