Congress MP Manickam Tagore criticized Udhayanidhi Stalin, the leader of the Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK), for attributing the Bharatiya Janata Party's (BJP) electoral successes to Congress. Tagore emphasized that Congress has historically supported the DMK during difficult times and rejected any attempts by the BJP to connect the DMK with the All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (AIADMK), stating such claims undermine Congress's core principles. Another Congress leader, Thirunavukkarasar, pointed out that since the DMK is part of the Congress alliance, it shares some responsibility for the BJP's victories. He encouraged both parties to focus on their respective alliances and work towards the welfare of the people instead of engaging in harsh criticisms. Additionally, Tagore addressed a recent murder case in Coimbatore, calling for severe punishment for the accused and urging the police to enhance safety measures for women and children.
