Hitting back at Prime Minister Narendra Modi at a seyal veerargal kootam in Udhagamandalam on Saturday, December 2, 2023, Tamil Nadu Minister for Sports and Youth Welfare, Udhayanidhi Stalin said that it was indeed true that only one family was doing well in India, and that was the Adanis.
Mr. Udhayanidhi said that he was responding to statements made by the Prime Minister at an election rally in Madhya Pradesh recently, when Mr. Modi allegedly said that only one family was living well in Tamil Nadu, and that was the family of Chief Minister, M.K. Stalin. The PM was making the statements to underscore allegations of nepotism within the DMK.
“I only spoke about equality in my speech,” said Mr. Udhayanidhi, referring to his speech on Sanatana dharma that sparked a controversy, “but Mr. Modi made it a talking point across the country, and also said that only one family was living well in Tamil Nadu,” he said. “There are now Adani railways, Adani airports, roads and even stadiums. So only one family in India is living well and that is the Adanis,” said Mr. Udhayanidhi.
