TTV Dhinakaran and Udhayanidhi Stalin
TTV Dhinakaran, the general secretary of the Amma Makkal Munnetra Kazhagam (AMMK), called the Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK) autocratic and intolerant, after the arrest of a party functionary, CSC Senthilkumaran of Nagapattinam, for a meme regarding Udhayanidhi Stalin.
The meme shared by Senthilkumaran was apparently to mock Udhayanidhi's recent elevation as Sports Minister. The meme has a scene from the movie 'Gentleman' in which actor Senthil introduces games like 'coupling' and 'spooling'.
Taking a swipe at Udhayanidhi, Senthilkumaran said that in a democracy only those who allow freedom of expression can become real leaders.
The Amma Makkal Munnetra Kazhagam (AMMK) is a faction of the All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (AIADMK). His aunt VK Sasikala, was a close associate of late chief minister J Jayalalithaa.
