First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, next they oppose you, then you win

[Shukra]

Annamalai is highly pained by degeneration of things to this level.
Saravanan is in denial "mania." Can't feel the pain of such a sad state of affairs.

[kajorisen]

Annamalai 👍..shame on dmk n congress..

[samasomu]

Annamalai is a good political leader in thamilnaadu....

[JaiBharat_]

Annamalai is whipping himself to express his anguish against the lawlessness in the State of Tamilnadu.

[shivakumargk]

Annamalai IPS is a great honest young dynamic visionary leader in recent times born to serve the nation and people 🙏🙏🙏🙏

[MekalaVReddy]

Painful to see - in current days !! but he used traditional method to express his pain..
Hope people of TN wake-up & THINK with their mind, than highly polarised media (digital, print & other) ::(
Nice to see two (mixed) names of the panel !

[inoidontknow]

Annamalai will oust DiMuKa out of its is no question about it! His penance is too deep for the Gods to ignore 🙏🙏

[arimsamyable]

This type of actions are practiced in many countries. Even the Christians in the Philippines and South American countries do it.

This type of drastic actions trigger impulses within the deep recesses of the mind. The brain sends out waves.

The sharp pain has the effect of stilling the mind.

[balasubramanianchandrasekh]

As Uma Ji says none of these people are talking about the wrongs done by goons in the instant case

[KodaikanalWG-zqjr]

Karthik chithambaram is residue of Dynasty politics

[shivakumargk]

Annamalai IPS is our only hope for our children's safety and bright future 🙏🙏🙏🙏

[nachsn]

Irregardless, it has gained widespread attention. Congress and DMK should comment on its own theatrics by Rahul and Stalin

[inoidontknow]

Mr Kovai Sathiyan should understand that Mr Annamalai was the first to announce a press meet and give intricate details of the involvement of DMK in that press meet. He wants people to see the issue so he is resorting to Dharmic traditions followed by Hindus for ages 🙏🙏🙏

[SaralasBoutique]

Annamalai is an erudite person. Above all he is a desh bhakth. The corrupt ones are ganging up. They all know Annamalai is not to be taken lightly. His war against corruption started. Bharat Mata ki Jai.

[poornimarao]

ನಮ್ಮ ದೇಶದ ಮಹಾನ್ ವ್ಯಕ್ತಿ ಮಾನ್ಯ ಶ್ರೀ k. Annamalai ಅವರು 2026 ರ tamil state c m ಖಂಡಿತ ಆಗುತ್ತಾರೆ. ಜೈ ಹಿಂದ್.... ಜೈ ಭಾರತ್ ಮಾತಾ ಕಿ 🙏🙏

[youchannal]

Mr. Annamalai 2026 CM in Tamilnadu 🔥🔥🔥

[sureshkrishnan]

DMK guy involvement and protection by top brass

[asokandakshinamoorthy]

Amalai has succeeded in his mission and the incident has been brought to notice of the whole nation. He needs no publicity. Americai Narayan can be called ' Mayiru Narayanan'. He is repeating the same in every channel instead of condemning the police who hides the second culprit. His party is in alliance with dmk a party synonymous with vulgarity. Even in assembly their leaders induged in making vulgar remarks.

[knsk]

People of TN will vote for those who gives more money. Which only can be done by DMK.
