Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK) government has foisted a case against former Chief Minister Edappadi K. Palaniswami to hide its failure in keep its poll promises, said former Minister Sellur K. Raju.
Addressing cadres at a protest called for condemning the registration of a criminal case against All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam interim general secretary, Mr. Palaniswami, Mr. Raju said that the DMK had booked him as it considered him as a challenge to the ruling party.
A case of assault, abusing and criminal intimidation were registered against Mr. Palaniswami and five others on a complaint lodged by an Amma Makkal Munnetra Kazhagam cadre Rajeshwaran. Rajeshwaran had raised slogans criticising the former Chief Minister at Madurai airport on Saturday.
Mr. Raju said that while the police had deliberately delayed action on the complaint lodged by the AIADMK against Rajeshwaran, they booked Mr. Palaniswami after getting a complaint from him.
