Mr. Selvaperunthagai said on Wednesday (July 16, 2025) that no one has the right to make or speak of a friend in such a way. “He (Siva) speaks without any evidence. Leave him. No one is eligible to criticize Kamajar,” he said.
Mrs. Jothimani said that a friend was not only known for her honesty and administrative skills, but also for his simplicity, and added that he was defeated in the elections due to myths of the widespread DMK.
“He traveled to every corner and corner of Tamil over. These corners and corners do not have air -conditioned rooms or five -star hotels. As the main minister Kamaraj, he stayed in government hostels and even slept under the tree when it was too much,” she said. Mr. Siva’s statement was “completely false”.
