Chennai: Chief Minister Stalin was kept in the camp office and the abbots of Tamil Nadu met and talked. They requested the chief to hold a hunger strike.
Dharmapuram Adinam has a hunger strike on the 22nd. Then, the devotees will carry him on the pulpit. Mayiladuthurai Kottatsiyar has given a letter to Adinath banning this. This has been condemned and welcomed by various quarters.
Debates have erupted over the ban. Mannar Chenba Mannar Sentha Alangara Jiyar, when met by reporters, said, ‘Ministers cannot walk on the road if they act against Hindus’. However, the Adeenas said they would meet first to discuss the matter.
Accordingly, today Kunrakkudi Ponnambala Adigalar, Mayilam Pombapuram Aadeenam, Coimbatore Peruradinam met Chief Minister Stalin in Chennai. Their meeting lasted for a few hours. Speaking to reporters after the meeting, Aadeen said, “We congratulate the Chief Minister on the completion of one year of the DMK government. We hope that the government will help in smoothing the entry of hunger.”
There is no need to mix politics with the hunger strike. The words spoken by the Mannargudi zealot that the ministers could not walk were wrong. That fact must be taken into account. “
