Congress MP, B. Manickam Tagore, has raised question over the absence of senior party leaders in ‘En Mann, En Makkal’ yatra taken out by BJP State president K. Annamalai.
Terming the yatra as a ‘drama’, the Virudhunagar MP said that BJP senior leaders, Pon. Radhakrishnan, H. Raja and MLA Vanathi Srinivasan were missing in the yatra.
“Mr. Radhakrishnan, who was there in the yatra in Ramanathapuram district, was absent when the yatra reached Madurai,” he said.
Earlier, Mr. Annamalai had said that Mr. Radhakrishnan would guide the road show in its first leg in southern districts.
Stating that people of Tamil Nadu would not fall for ‘the drama’, Mr. Tagore said that Mr. Annamalai was doing politics in the social media.
He criticised Narendra Modi Government for spending too much money on propaganda for the Amrit Bharat Railway Station Scheme.
