“Now, you (DMK) realise however inexpensive the Congress tin be. You watched erstwhile helium killed Tamils for the involvement of keeping power...now helium has insulted you. Rahul Gandhi didn’t adjacent look connected signifier with you (MK Stalin), but helium attended the swearing successful ceremonial (of CM C. Joseph Vijay) showing his teeth. After elections, the evil unit became ‘pure force’. DMK is an evil force, but those (MLAs) who were elected with the DMK votes person been welcomed (by TVK).”
He added, “People volition speech astir 13th amendment (in Sri Lanka) and truthful on, but the lone solution is simply a abstracted Eelam. We are demanding a referendum. Once we get powerfulness (in Tamil Nadu), we volition propulsion for a referendum for a abstracted authorities for Tamils successful Sri Lanka. This is the past governmental solution.”
