‘Offensive’ remarks to detention: 6 points on Udhayanidhi Stalin's Trisha comments row
Udhayanidhi Stalin, who was detained earlier on Tuesday, will be released after police complete his questioning in Thanjavur, as per Madras HC's directives.
The opposition leader Udhayanidhi Stalin faced criticism after making offensive remarks on actress Trisha Krishnan during a public rally in Thanjavur. His comments were allegedly made in response to the crowd chanting "Trisha, Trisha" over the Cauvery water dispute. The Tamil Nadu Democratic Party (Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam) filed a complaint against Stalin, leading to his detention by the Thanjavur police.
