CHENNAI: Addressing cadres at an event in Mahabalipuram to celebrate the Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK) stepped into third year, party chief Vijay referred to a past statement by Chief Minister and DMK president MK Stalin about having sleepless nights over alleged excesses by party colleagues, and said, “If you wake him from deep slumber and ask which symbol he would vote for, he will say the whistle. People speak the truth when woken from sleep.”
Calling TVK the true whistleblower of Tamil Nadu politics, Vijay urged cadres to intensify booth-level mobilisation across urban and rural areas. “The whistle has reached every village. Families are with us. The people are our biggest alliance,” he said.
On the actor being targeted for not meeting the public or the media and whenever he was challenged, Vijay said, “To those who say ‘hey Vijay, come out of the house’, I would say wait boss, there’s a Vijay and Viji in every house.
They will all come out on the day of voting with their voter ID and stand in front of the polling booth to vote. Then you will feel it. “
