While all the political parties are busy with their campaigns for the upcoming Tamil Nadu Assembly elections, the DMK is using this as an opportunity to “dine-and-dash” in every place they go campaigning in.
Earlier, in Udhayanidhi’s constituency of Chepauk, the party’s members had threatened the owner of an old building into giving them the building to set up a campaign office in the constituency. Notably, this had earlier been a shop that was to be demolished to construct a house for the owner of the plot.
Similarly, in the said campaign office, during a recent meeting of the party members, there had been requests by the attendees that biryani be served at the meeting. Adhering to these requests, a party leader had approached the owner of a biryani stall and demanded that they be served during the meeting. When the owner had replied that they would not be given any food until they pay up, the members of DMK proceeded to violently argue with the restaurant owner.
As the argument grew, one of the members had suggested that they did not have to pay if they run away with the vessel containing the biryani. Cheered on by this suggestion, the members proceeded to uplift the vessel containing biryani, and ran away with it, much to the shock and protest of the restaurant owner.
