PTR’s tweet comes in the light of Annamalai’s recent pressmeet in which he said that the leaked conversation between him and another BJP cadre discussing about PTR’s car getting slippered incident was true adding that BJP’s politics will be aggressive going forward.
Responding to PTR’s tweet, Annamalai pulled no punches and hit back with a blistering attack.
“Mr PTR, your problem is this: You & your coterie, who only live with your ancestors’ initials, cannot accept a self-made son of a farmer who also proudly practices farming – as a person.” Annamalai lashed out.
“Have you done anything worthwhile in this life except being born to a great lineage & a silver spoon? You are a curse to politics & our state!” Annamalai lambasted at PTR who often keeps harping on about his dynastic privilege.
Annamalai further said “You need to understand there are people like us too – who don’t travel in big planes; don’t shut down banks & importantly, have a balanced brain & a life.”
PTR had once said that he travels only in big planes and not smaller low-cost airlines.
“Finally, You are not worthy enough for my Chappals. I’ll never stoop to your level to orchestrate something like that. Don’t worry!” Annamalai concluded his tweet.
Mr PTR, your problem is this:
You & your coterie, who only live with your ancestors' initials, cannot accept a self-made son of a farmer who also proudly practices farming – as a person. (1/4)

PTR’s Rant Against Public Personalities
This is not the first time that Palanivel Thiagarajan has made personal attacks on his political opponents. Earlier too, PTR has targeted Annamalai family’s goat-rearing background. In most of his tweets on Annamalai, he refers to the BJP leader as a goat.
He had unleashed abuses and made personal attacks on Coimbatore South MLA Vanathi Srinivasan who had called out the former for insulting Goa during the 43rd GST Council meeting.
Very recently in May 2022, he abused a woman journalist by invoking her caste identity.
He had not even spared even senior leaders of his own party. Without naming senior DMK leader Elangovan, he called him a man who could be bought for 2 kgs of shrimp.
