Explanation


Speaking to reporters on May 22, Seeman, the chief co-ordinator of the Naam Tamilar Party, highly criticized the DMK members’ promotion of Udayanithi’s film Nenjukku Needhi.

Then, “DMK MP Senthilkumar said he has never seen Periyar. But after seeing Udayanidhi in a khaki shirt, it felt like seeing Periyar”, he said.

What is the truth?

As Seeman mentioned, it was not the DMK’s Dharmapuri MP Senthilkumar who spoke of seeing Periyar in Udayanidhi, but a fake Twitter page operating in the name of journalist Senthilvel.
