CHENNAI: The Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK) on Monday mocked Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK) founder Vijay over his remark that Chief Minister MK Stalin will ask people to vote for his party, calling it “Vijay’s fantastic dreams.”
DMK spokesperson TKS Elangovan sarcastically remarked that the actor-politician has contributed a lot to the development of the state, hinting at the unproven electoral or governance trackrecord of the fledgling party and its novice president.
“Tamil Nadu is number one in GDP because of Vijay. And everybody is getting an education (because of Vijay). He had done many good things for the people of Tamil Nadu. And when he is sleeping soundly, he thinks the chief minister will ask people to vote for him,” Elangovan said, and added, “What a fantastic thing of his brain,” in a derisive statement on TVK chief’s claims.
Vijay wants to become the CM and hence was criticising the sitting Chief Minister, the DMK organising secretary said, responding to Vijay’s remark today, claiming that Stalin would ask the people to vote for ‘whistle’ (TVK election symbol), even if he were to wake up from his slumber.
On Vijay’s remark that “Vijays and Vijis” from every house will turn out in large numbers on the poll day and vote for the TVK, Elangovan replied, “That is his dream.”
