Tamil Nadu Chief Minister MK Stalin was at the Mettur Dam on Tuesday (May 24, 2022) to release water ahead of the kuruvai crop cultivation.
The Mettur Dam has been seeing a copious inflow of water due to good rains in the catchment areas.
In light of this, CM Stalin had ordered for opening the Mettur Dam on May 24, three weeks ahead of the usual water release date of June 12.
During the event, CM Stalin was accompanied by the state Minister for Water Resources Durai Murugan, Local Body Minister K.N. Nehru, District Collector S Karmegam and several others.
It is a convention that the Chief Minister while releasing the floodgates showers flowers from the top of the dam to mark the occassion.
CM Stalin instead of showering flowers, threw off the plate.
This video has now gone viral on social media with CM Stalin becoming the butt of all jokes.
