Vijay digs into DMK’s past, Udhayanidhi asks: ‘What about the present?’
Chief Minister C Joseph Vijay made headlines last week by vowing to answer the Opposition on Monday. Upon his arrival in Tamil Nadu Assembly, he presented a plethora of historical evidence, delving into the past to argue that corruption was not an isolated incident but deeply embedded in the political machinery of the previous DMK establishment.
His opponent, Leader of the Opposition Udhayanidhi Stalin, countered by emphasizing that Vijay had been elected to govern the present, not to dissect the past. This exchange sparked tumult within the House and left a larger political question unanswered: how long can the corruption history remain relevant as the DMK continues to win power, and how long can Vijay rely on exposing that past before voters demand accountability primarily for his own government?
