Viduthalai Chiruthaigal Katchi (VCK) founder and Chidamabaram MP, Thol. Thirumavalavan, on Wednesday slammed Prime Minister Narendra Modi for his decision to preside over the inauguration of new Parliament building instead of the President of India, Droupadi Murmu, despite the latter being the head of both the Houses of legislature – Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha – on May 28 in New Delhi and said that the party will be boycotting the event.
He also criticised the decision to inaugurate the new building on the birth anniversary V.D. Savarkar, who did not believe in democracy at all and laid the foundation for sectarian politics.
