It may be recalled that Vaiko made some intemperate remarks against Karunanidhi, which triggered widespread protests by DMK workers across the State. 

However, Vaiko immediately tendered an unconditional apology and admitted it was a blunder committed in his life time. He also said that he had never intended to hurt the feelings of Karunanidhi. 

Taking cognisance of this, the EC has issued a notice to Vaiko, seeking his explanation. Meanwhile, PWF partner and VCK leader Thol Thirumavalavan took objection to issuance of notice and alleged that the EC’s action was unwarranted.
