Tamil Nadu BJP Trolls CM Stalin By Sending Birthday Wishes In His 'Favourite' Language

The Tamil Nadu BJP took a potshot at Chief Minister MK Stalin on Friday by sending birthday wishes to him in Mandarin language.

It comes days after the DMK's newspaper advertisement featured a Chinese flag. "On behalf of Tamil Nadu BJP, here's wishing our Honourable CM Thiru MK Stalin a happy birthday in his favourite language! May he live a long and healthy life!" the BJP tweeted.

Tamil Nadu BJP president K Annamalai has shared a photo of a newspaper ad, allegedly given by State Fisheries Minister Anitha Radhakrishnan to welcome Prime Minister Narendra Modi for laying the foundation stone of the Kulasekaranpattinam Spaceport.

On X, he said, "This advertisement by DMK Minister Anita Radhakrishnan to leading Tamil dailies today is a manifestation of DMK's commitment to China & their total disregard for our country's sovereignty. DMK, a party flying high on corruption, has been desperate to paste stickers ever since the announcement of ISRO's second launch pad in Kulasekarapatinam was released..."

Meanwhile, Anitha R Radhakrishnan said it was a gaffe by the designer. "A small mistake happened in the advertisement. We have no other intention. We have only love for India in our hearts," Radhakrishnan said, adding that it is his party's stand that India should stay united without giving any room for clashes on the grounds of caste or religion.
