in 1967 after Anna came to power there was a famous incident. A partyman came to Anna and said there was a Multi-millionarire Industrialist wanting to meet and talk to him. Anna called the partyman and said "we are in power to serve the millions of downtrodden people and not the big industrialists, remember that always". If people want a government for the rich and elite, they can vote for it.. DMK has always been a party for the poor, vulnerable and downtrodden since Anna's days.

Thats a nice filmy dialogue. I bet his dialogue even today would be the same since poverty has not been eradicated all that much in TN

Well Bhaskar, that was money earned through hard work .... from a mere paper boy to a filthy richman....haven't you seen this in the movies? How come you accept it in the movies and not in real life? Anything is possible in TN. Just come here and live and you will be surprised. The media (staring with the N.Ram and the gang)are all subservient to these thugs and robbers. Can anybody stop them? Yes, God Almighty. Unfortunately he has turned a blind eye to what is happening in TN. Infact, He has not taken away any of these "noble souls" from amidst us as he is afraid that they may create divisions in his own Kingdom.
