Tamil Nadu BJP President K. Annamalai along with his party cadres held a protest against the DMK in light of the recent drug bust involving now-expelled DMK functionary Jaffer Sadiq and the rising seizure of drugs in the state.
Pointing to the T-shirt worn by BJP leader Vinoj P. Selvam which said “Save our children. Say no 2 drugs and DMK. Save our youth”, Annamalai said “I’m telling you, ‘Say No To Drugs and Dravidian Parties’. The D denotes everything right? We don’t need (them). Why are you (hinting at ADMK) staging a drama today? In your (ADMK) regime, the same TASMAC was milked like a cash cow. No one cared about what happened to people, who is dying, who is alive, who is getting ulcers in their guts. That’s not the worry at all. They were worried about whether TASMAC money and the commission is coming“.
It’s not just “Say No to Drugs and DMK”

Annamalai had criticized the ADMK led by Edappadi K. Palaniswami who along with his party members had carried out at human chain protest against the growing drug menace under the DMK regime.
“Those who ruled the state and grew TASMAC are today wearing black shirts and doing protest. There can’t be a bigger injustice than this. The ones in power today are doing mistakes. Let that be on one side. Those who ruled the state (ADMK), are wearing black shirts. Then we’re compelled to ask why did you keep the TASMACs open during your regime? You had 5500 shops.“, he took jibes at the ADMK
He listed down the recent drugs busts that happened and the rampant drug culture prevalent among the youth.
He further said “Today, people are asking the BJP ‘Sir, we voted alternatively for 60 years. All the parties have grown themselves with liquor. Those partymen themselves run breweries. People of those party themselves trade drugs. You say BJP is unique. What are you doing to do differently?’. From 13 March to 20 March, for 7 days, our party will work on the ground to eradicate drugs.”
Let’s contribute 15 hours of our valuable time in the next 7 days to propagate de-addiction.
Let’s join together to make Tamil Nadu Drug-Free.
I’ve taken the pledge. Have you?
