This is what happens to athiests. Karuna feels that he is going to live for ever. What a pathetic situation for T.N. An 80 year old person who cannot walk on his own is the head of the state.And worse his sons who are well established goons are fighting with each other for the throne in the true dynasty style politics. An old ma who cannot kep his home intact is giving lessons to not only the state but also the centre. Salutations to the people of T.N because of whom the state is still standing tall inspite of these useless good for nothing politicians.

It is a choice between devil & deep sea as in the case of most other states. People have little choce but to alternately choose between the devil & deep sea.

The irony is that that the Justice Party aka Dravida kazhagam from which all the other Kazhagams including the DMK hve splintered from used to mock at the Indian (Aryan) mythology that showed all Aryan Kings and Gods practising polygamy and dynastic rule. Now Karunanidhi himself (hailed as the leader of the Tamil "race") practices both. He has two wives and he has prepared his son to take over as him. Infact, sometime back, Anbazhagan a former professor and known as a staunch follower of Dravidian "ideals" and considered as the logical successor to karunanidhi went public at a meeting, "After Karunanidhi, Stalin will bethe CM, After Stalin, Stalin's son will be the CM and so on". Thanks, Mohan

Dear Mr. Bala,
See the caption! It's brother vs brother! I don't understand if it so then why the Govt. is providing compensation from State Treasury to those who died in the act (why tax payers should suffer)? Rather those brothers should provide the compensation! Tamil Makkal...........are you people hearing??????????????????????????????????!

Very true, but it looks like the poll is silent about Dayanadhi Maran.

Well said Bala. No doubt TN would have become the best state had these politicians not played their tricks. One correction, for administering a state one need not have to walk on his/her own, what needs to be there is mental strength, which definitely Karuna has. We have to be fair and modest in our comments. We should not drag personal aspects. Even Vajpayee is in his 80s. Is he not an able administrator? Ofcourse, I fully agree youngsters need to take over under the guidance of experienced people. Decision making will be faster. See Dayanidhi Maran's performance in the Centre. Is he not doing well? Why Rajiv Gandhi was a person who changed the face of India. On the other hand, see Mr. Chidambaram's performance in Centre, is he not doing well? Both experienced and young politicians can take the country forward if they have will and vision.
