As Bharatiraja took the stage, Congress and DMK workers tried to stall the rally, thus setting the tone for a brutal attack on the home minister. "We have been speaking at many venues. Why is it that in the Union home minister's home town we are being attacked like this?" the director asked.
He blamed the Congress party for turning a blind eye to the 'ethnic cleansing' in Lanka, and alleged the central government was providing arms and intelligence to the Sri Lankan army.
"People wearing red shirts, green shirts, and black shirts. all of them are angry at what is happening in Lanka. I don't understand how these people wearing khadar (khadi) shirts can be so blind to what is happening there," he said, alluding to the fact that Tamils from different ideologies are united on the issue.
