Tamil Nadu Leader of Opposition Udhayanidhi Stalin has come under criticism over a remark made during a public meeting in Thanjavur on the Cauvery water issue, with the TVK and other party leaders alleging that the comment was an indirect reference to actor Trisha.
The DMK, however, denied the allegation, saying no such reference was made. The ruling TVK has escalated its protest against DMK leader Udhayanidhi Stalin over his allegedly offensive remarks directed at a film actor, filing complaints with both the local police and the National
Commission for Women (NCW) on Tuesday.
A police complaint was lodged at the Thanjavur East Police Station by S Bairavi, the TVK's Central District Women's Wing Organiser for Thanjavur, and there is a buzz that the leader of the opposition may be arrested.
Meanwhile, Tamil Nadu police have deployed a huge police force in front of the residence Udhayanidhi is staying in Thanjavur. The contentious remark was made during a DMK demonstration led by Udhayanidhi near the Panagal Building in Thanjavur on Monday.
