Vijay's TVK moves NCW over Udayanidhi Stalin's controversial Trisha remarks
DMK's Udayanidhi Stalin is facing heavy criticism from TVK after slogans related to actor Trisha were raised at his recent rally. Stalin slammed Chief Minister Vijay over the Cauvery dispute with Karnataka.
The Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK) has filed a complaint with the National Commission for Women against DMK youth wing secretary and Leader of Opposition Udhayanidhi Stalin for allegedly making offensive remarks about actress Trisha Krishnan at a rally in Thanjavur District. Stalin made the controversial statement, which was perceived as derogatory towards Trisha, during a recent gathering.
The TVK has requested the National Commission to issue a notice to Udhayanidhi Stalin, demanding an explanation and an unconditional apology for the remarks. News agency PTI confirmed the development, stating that the party also lodged a complaint at the Thanjavur East Police Station, filed by S Bairavi, the Central District Women's Wing Organiser for Thanjavur.
Udhayanidhi Stalin denied making any objectionable remarks, claiming his comments were misrepresented and focused solely on farmers' concerns. He was subsequently detained by police, resulting in a significant police presence in front of his residence.
