DMK MP A Raja on Monday, 29 March, apologised for his recent statement against Tamil Nadu Chief Minister Edappadi K Palaniswami while campaigning in the Thousands Lights constituency in Chennai last week.
The apology comes after Edappadi Palaniswami got emotional during a rally, and said, “If a chief minister is disrespected in such a way then imagine the things that will happen to a common man if such people come to power.” He also said that the statement is not only against his mother but every mother, and that the people who speak in a derogatory manner about women must learn a lesson.
