Viral Video: DMK Leader’s Scathing Remarks on PM Modi

The political landscape of Tamil Nadu is abuzz with controversy following the emergence of a video featuring DMK leader Jaypalan making highly inflammatory statements directed at Prime Minister Narendra Modi. During a public demonstration in Tenkasi, Jaypalan reportedly likened PM Modi to a demon and explicitly stated that the Prime Minister’s ‘elimination’ was necessary for the state’s benefit. This provocative rhetoric has triggered a strong backlash from the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). Tamil Nadu BJP chief Nainar Nagendran has strongly denounced the remarks, emphasizing the severity of issuing threats against the Prime Minister and questioning the safety and security protocols in the state. Nagendran also expressed disappointment over the apparent silence of other DMK leaders, including elected officials, during Jaypalan’s speech, suggesting it indicated a disturbing pattern. The BJP is actively campaigning for Jaypalan’s swift apprehension. The incident adds a layer of political tension as Prime Minister Modi prepares for an upcoming visit to Andhra Pradesh and Tamil Nadu, which includes engagements in Coimbatore focusing on natural farming and farmer support initiatives.
