In a sharp response to Tamil Nadu Chief Minister MK Stalin바카라s recent remarks, BJP state chief K Annamalai raised questions about Stalin's leadership abilities.
Drawing a comparison to US Presidents who undergo mental health check-ups to assess their fitness to govern, Annamalai cast doubt on Stalin바카라s ability to effectively lead Tamil Nadu.
The heated exchange came amidst the ongoing controversy over the Centre바카라s proposed three-language policy, which has faced strong opposition from the DMK.
Annamalai바카라s criticism came after Stalin announced an all-party meeting scheduled for March 5 to discuss the issue of Lok Sabha delimitation. Stalin expressed concerns that Tamil Nadu could lose eight parliamentary seats due to the state바카라s success in implementing a family planning program, which resulted in population control. As a result, the state바카라s representation in Parliament could be reduced.
Annamalai swiftly responded, accusing Stalin of creating 바카라imaginary fears바카라 regarding delimitation and attempting to shift focus from the contentious three-language policy.
바카라When nobody has spoken on this or officially said anything, why is he calling for an all-party meeting?바카라 Annamalai posted on social media, questioning the need for such a meeting. He also hinted that the BJP might not attend the all-party meeting, further intensifying the political standoff.
Three-language policy clash
The three-language policy, which includes the teaching of Hindi in schools, remains a major point of contention between the BJP-led Central government and the DMK-led Tamil Nadu government.
Stalin reaffirmed his strong opposition to the policy, declaring that Tamil Nadu would not accept the imposition of Hindi in schools, and would continue with Tamil and English as the primary languages of instruction.
Annamalai, who has been a vocal critic of the DMK바카라s position on this issue, accused Stalin of fear-mongering and shifting the narrative away from the three-language debate. 바카라The people of Tamil Nadu have rejected Stalin바카라s argument on the three-language policy, and now he wants to create unnecessary panic about delimitation,바카라 Annamalai said, emphasising the state바카라s rejection of the Hindi imposition.
Stalin calls for Unity over Delimitation threat
Stalin, on the other hand, has urged all political parties in Tamil Nadu to come together in unity to discuss the potential loss of parliamentary seats due to the delimitation process. He stated that Tamil Nadu바카라s reduced population, resulting from successful family planning measures, should not lead to a reduction in the state's political representation in Parliament.
The Chief Minister also reminded political leaders of the importance of Tamil Nadu바카라s representation in Parliament and the need for a collective effort to safeguard the state바카라s rights. 바카라Our representation in Parliament is at risk, and Tamil Nadu바카라s voice could be stifled if we lose these seats,바카라 Stalin warned.
