Thiagarajan flays Nagenthran for silence on CM’s PM barb

CHENNAI: BJP state secretary Karate Thiagarajan has criticised the party’s legislature party leader Nainar Nagenthran at a public meeting in Chennai for failing to register his protest when Chief Minister M K Stalin criticised Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman in Tirunelveli a few days ago.

On Friday, at Tirunelveli, when reporters asked about Thiagarajan’s remarks, a smiling Nagenthran initially declined to answer. But when the reporter pointed out that the criticism came from one of his party colleagues, Nagenthran said: “Sabhai naagareegamnu onnu irukkilla? (Isn’t there a decorum to be followed in an assembly/meeting).”
