So should he visit or not? Why these many stands?

For decades, political parties in Tamil Nadu have accused one another of corruption, disproportionate assets, scams, and misuse of public money. Many of these allegations have involved thousands of crores, although not all have resulted in convictions.

Now that the TVK government is in office and has taken a categorically staunch stance against corruption do you think it will have the political will to investigate such cases and recover them and return the money back into state's treasury?

Even if only half of the allegedly illegally acquired wealth is ultimately recovered through due legal process, it may not be enough to wipe out Tamil Nadu's entire debt, but it could still represent a substantial sum that could help fund public welfare, infrastructure, and other promises made by the TVK government....

When that unfortunate incident in Karur occurred, when Vijay was facing pressure from almost all quarters, one of the first prominent leaders to publicly come to his support was EPS. At that time, there was also a lot of pressure on the government to take action against Vijay, but after that, the situation gradually settled down.

A few days later, EPS even spoke about the possibility of a new alliance, and there was speculation that TVK and AIADMK could eventually come together.

But later, Vijay decided to take a solo path politically. He intensified his criticism against AIADMK, saying that they were no longer the political force to be reckoned with and that the real contest was between DMK and TVK. After the election too, when Vijay met several political leaders, he did not meet EPS, even though he met others, including Seeman. Many people viewed that as a political insult.

Looking back, EPS has shown consideration towards Vijay on more than one occasion. During the COVID period too, when the film industry needed government support and relaxations for releases, the AIADMK government was generally seen as accommodating towards Vijay's film releases.

At the same time, AIADMK is now facing a difficult phase, with reports of leaders, MLAs and workers are channeled towards TVK.

This makes me wonder, does EPS, in hindsight, regret the way he handled the Karur issue? Was extending support to Vijay when he was in a crisis politically had been a wise decision?, especially while considering how things eventually turned out against him and his party? Or do you think he simply did what any responsible opposition leader should have done at that moment, regardless of future political consequences?

Also, how do you evaluate EPS's overall handling of Vijay as an actor and a leader from then to now? Finally, do you think EPS and AIADMK can stage a strong political comeback, or has the rise of TVK permanently changed their position?

Fantastic attempt by Britannia.

Why this much hatred against karur victims? Blaming Vijay is one thing but blaming the victims is something not acceptable altogether.

“these Paappaans” while targeting HR&CE Minister Thiru. Ramesh, who happens to be a Brahmin

However RSBharathi claims that he only meant “papa” (child).
