” The Dravidian party chief, addressing a poll rally near here described his party nominee for the Arakkonam Lok Sabha constituency, S Jagathrakshakan as a deeply spiritual man who spent his money during his previous tenure as MP to renovate hundreds of temples in Arakkonam, besides developing infrastructure and undertaking other welfare initiatives.


“Jagathrakshakan has another specialty. He is a deeply spiritual person. Some are even today criticising DMK as an enemy of the Hindus. Are you saying this even after seeing him (Jagathrakshakan)?”


The DMK chief blamed sections of the media for deliberately creating a false impression that his party was against the Hindus. Stalin said his wife offered worship at temples every day and added that he had never prevented her from visiting temples since it was her wish.
