Vijay’s Strong Condemnation
Vijay has reacted strongly on the recent remarks that were made by Ponraj Vellaichamy, and called him an ‘opportunistic gambler’.
Former advisor of the late APJ Abdul Kalam and Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK) supporter Ponraj Vellaichamy sparked a huge row on social media for his derogatory remarks referring to female cadres of the Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK) as ‘prostitutes.’ Several members of TVK have publicly slammed the comments made by Ponraj after the comments surfaced on social media. Actor-turned-politician and TVK chief Vijay has now reacted to the comments, slamming Ponraj and the DMK government for shielding him.
Ponraj’s Derogatory Remarks Spark Outrage
He continued, “Thinking to provoke the T.V.K., this act—which insults all women collectively—will ensure, by the unanimous decision of the mother clan in the upcoming election, that the evil force DMK is firmly, firmly, firmly destined to swallow the land.”
Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK) general secretary Aadhav Arjuna also slammed the remarks made by Ponraj, and said, “Even if one were to claim that he is a great man who worked in a position of great responsibility, it appears that Ponraj has consistently acted without even a shred of basic morality or essential human dignity after later turning into a DMK supporter.”
TVK vs. DMK: Election Showdown Looms
Vijay will contest the upcoming Tamil Nadu Assembly elections. He had earlier declared that the 2026 Tamil Nadu Assembly elections would be a direct contest between “pure force TVK and evil force DMK.” Positioning TVK as the true representative of the people, Vijay had also said, “The competition is between the Tamil Nadu people and Stalin sir. Vijay and people are like blood and flesh; no one can separate them.”
Vijay’s strong reaction underscores the escalating political tensions in Tamil Nadu. His condemnation of the remarks and accusations against the DMK suggest a heated battleground for the upcoming elections, focusing on issues of respect and morality.
