AIADMK General Secretary Edappadi K. Palaniswami has taken a swipe at Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M.K. Stalin, suggesting he deserves a “Nobel Prize” for allegedly making statements contrary to the truth. Responding to Stalin’s moniker for him as ‘Poi (lies) Palaniswami,’ Palaniswami claimed the Chief Minister was the one skilled in deceit. He questioned the authenticity of projects inaugurated by the DMK government, asserting they were initiated during the previous AIADMK regime. Palaniswami also criticized the ruling party for continuing “anti-people” activities and highlighted issues in the public transport sector, alleging a lack of new bus purchases and functional buses under the DMK regime.
