AIADMK Slams Tamil Nadu Minister Anbarasan For Derogatory Comments About Jayalalithaa
The AIADMK has strongly criticized Tamil Nadu Minister TM Anbarasan for making allegedly derogatory remarks about former Chief Minister J Jayalalithaa. During a recent DMK event, Anbarasan commented on actors entering politics, specifically referencing Tamil actor Thalapathy Vijay, who recently launched his own political party.
Anbarasan remarked that such attempts would not succeed, stating that the trend started with former Chief Minister and AIADMK founder MG Ramachandran and continued with Jayalalithaa due to her "relationship" with him, but that it ended with her.
AIADMK women's wing secretary Valarmathi condemned Anbarasan's comments, urging him to "control his tongue" and be mindful of his words in public, as they have upset many, particularly women.
AIADMK leader and former state minister Jayakumar also denounced Anbarasan's remarks, stating that "no respectable politician would make such derogatory comments about a deceased person" and warning that if Anbarasan continues to speak in this manner, he will face "serious consequences."
