‘My words had only one meaning’: Udhayanidhi Stalin rejects Trisha remark allegations, calls Vijay's TVK a ‘circus’
The DMK leader alleged that the Vijay-led government edited his speech to divert attention from the Cauvery issue.
Udhayanidhi Stalin, the Leader of the Opposition in Tamil Nadu, has rejected allegations that he made "double-meaning" remarks against actress Trisha Krishnan during a rally in Thanjavur. The DMK leader insisted his speech was solely about the timely release of Cauvery water for the benefit of farmers, and that the ruling Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK) government was twisting his words to distract from the issue.
Speaking to reporters after his release from police custody, Udhayanidhi stated he had not spoken with any malicious intent and had not insulted anyone, including women. He called the TVK government a "circus" and accused it of arresting him instead of addressing public issues. Udhayanidhi was detained following a complaint by a TVK functionary, and was released after questioning.
