DMK Leader Udhayanidhi Stalin was taken to Sengipatti Police Station in Thanjavur on Tuesday, following his arrest for allegedly making a double-meaning remark during a speech at a Cauvery protest in Thanjavur. With the Madras High Court directing his release after questioning, the day saw political turmoil, protests by DMK workers, and a struggle between the ruling TTVK government and the opposition.
