Vellore: It has been reported that Minister Thuraimurugan has returned home with grief after receiving a phone call after boarding a flight to Dubai.
When Chief Minister Stalin returned to Chennai after completing his visit to Dubai, he was welcomed at the airport by Water Resources Minister Duraimurugan. Thuraimurugan arrived at the Chennai International Airport at 8:30 am, on an Emirates flight from Chennai at 9:50 am to Dubai.
His old passport had expired and he had taken a new one. The problem with obtaining a visa was that the Dubai visa did not specify the new passport number but the old number; So, he came home.
The error in the application was corrected and then the visa was obtained. He arrived at the airport on an Air India flight to Dubai at 6:50 pm that evening. With the mobile phone information that came to him then, he called the flight attendants and said ‘I do not want to travel today’.
Son denial
Thus, he was taken off the plane and sent home. The flight was delayed by 10 minutes. But Thuraimurugan had a mild chest pain and the reason was that he went to Apollo Hospital instead of going to Dubai.
This was denied by his son, Vellore DMK MP, Yumana Kadir Anand. ‘My father Thuraimurugan is at home in good health. ‘He was not admitted to any hospital,’ he said.
what happened?
Duraimurugan had high hopes that the Chief Minister would take him with him on his trip to Dubai; That did not happen. Thus it was decided to send, in order to expedite the work undertaken by the Chief Minister of Dubai, to rectify the disgruntled Duraimurugan. Arrangements were made accordingly.
But those closest to the first did not like Duraimurugan’s journey. He was banned from going to Dubai. The information was conveyed to Thuraimurugan, who was sitting on the plane, via mobile phone. So, at the last moment, he got off the plane, citing ill health; His trip was canceled. Unbeknownst to him, his son Kadir Anand has broken the truth, ruling party sources said.
