Prime Minister launches BJP’s Assembly election campaign in Coimbatore
Launching the BJP’s Assembly election campaign in Coimbatore, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday accused the DMK of promoting a “strongman culture” when in power as its style of governance is based on “bullying and harassment”.
“In every district, its [DMK’s] anti-social elements will trouble innocent citizens,” Mr. Modi said during a public meeting at the CODISSIA Trade Fair Complex grounds.
The women of Tamil Nadu suffered the most due to this culture, he said. “Entire Tamil Nadu knows how the DMK treated
Amma Jayalalithaaji. I do not need to repeat it,” he said, adding that leaders who allegedly “troubled” the former Chief Minister were “rewarded by the DMK and Congress”.
