The Chief Minister should learn to speak politely, says Nainar

Chief Minister C. Joseph Vijay should learn to speak politely, at least now that he has assumed the post of Chief Minister. For someone who cannot speak politely, what will he do as Chief Minister and no one knows what will happen to Tamil Nadu, said Nainar Nagenthran, president of Tamil Nadu Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP).

Mr. Nagenthran told the media in Coimbatore on Sunday (September 27, 2026) that the law and order situation was deteriorating in the state. Further, when the TVK government canceled the Parandur airport project, Tamil Nadu would have lost 10 years of progress. If the state government completes the land acquisition and gets all the approvals, the Tamil Nadu BJP unit will work to speed up the expansion of the Coimbatore airport, he added.

BJP had an alliance with DMK for the elections of 1999. After that DMK allied with Congress. However, Congress is now with TVK in the state. The Chief Minister was a person who contradicted himself, he said.

A new secretariat needed to be created. But the question was whether it was needed now. He claimed that there was no estimate or drawing plan for the new project.
