Sources : After meeting DMK President @mkstalin, TMMK Chief Professor Jawahirullah says, “People like Owaisi are not required for Tamil Nadu. Islamic parties in TN are fighting for social justice. TN should grow on a world scale”. 1/n
DMK’s Achilles heel, Third Kalaingar Udhayanidhi was instrumental for this fiasco.

The proposal to invite Owaisi was mooted by DMK’s Judas & General Secretary, Duraimurugan. He suggested to Udhayanidhi that, his son Kadhir Anand won only 2/n
because of the campaign by Owaisi. Urdu speaking Muslims are located in certain pockets of Vaniyambadi & Chepauk.

To impress the Third Kalaignar, Duraimurugan mooted this proposal, and impressed upon Udhayanidhi that due to the Urdu Muslims in Chepauk his contest in 3/n

To understand who Udhayanidhi is, read this fine piece in The Week that appeared in October 2019. Except @mkstalin everyone understands who he is 🤦🏻‍♀️

// Though sources close to Stalin’s family say the idea of forming a young women’s wing was talked about, 1/4
there hasn't been any decision taken in this regard yet. However, information from the insiders is that the young women’s wing, under the youth wing in the DMK, will be akin to the Ilaignar and Ilam Pengal Pasarai or the young men and women’s wing in the AIADMK. 2/4
The idea is to woo young women who are interested in politics and make the youth wing more powerful. The party intends to rope in women under the age of 35 who are knowledgeable and have the financial wherewithal to fight the opponents. 3/4

Sources : TN Minister for Food and Civil Supplies, R Kamaraj gets infected with Covid19. He has been admitted in MIOT.

A few questions to @CMOTamilNadu 1/n
1) When he claims that he is providing world class health facility and claims the state has prospered under his rule, why none of his cabinet colleagues, who were infected with Covid19, for example Minister for Higher Education KP Anbalagan get admitted into a government 2/n
hospital. Does @CMOTamilNadu’s own cabinet colleagues don’t trust government hospitals ? Or, whatever @CMOTamilNadu says is a lie ?

2) When his own cabinet colleagues get infected with Covid19, and have the risk of becoming a super-spreader, why is @CMOTamilNadu 3/n

The @RSSorg isation of Indian judiciary.

Kerala High Court's absurd order in a UAPA case:

"True, the prosecution could not prove that the respondents are members of an unlawful organisation. But these are surreptitious activities for which evidence
may not readily available, in black and white. Everything is done under the carpet, behind the curtain, without leaving any footprint."

In short: you are guilty if there is evidence against you. But you are also guilty if there is no evidence against you, because that only
shows how good you are at operating “surreptitiously”. The State always wins. At this stage we are in Stalinist show-trial territory.

Welcome to New India where the judiciary is a rubber stamp of executive's actions.
