Tamil Nadu: Chief Minister M Karunanidhi should retire from public life, Janata Party president Dr Subramanian Swamy said today. In a rejoinder to Karunanidhi’s remarks that Lord Ram was an imaginary character and Ram Sethu (Adam’s Bridge) was not man-made, Subramanian Swamy said, ‘the remarks against Lord Rama by Karunanidhi is rapidly becoming pathetic and may indicate that he is under pressure from outside much as from the terrorist outfits like the LTTE.
‘The LTTE has long wanted a short and quick access for its contraband boats from Jaffna Peninsula to Tuticorin and Kaniyakumari for its nefarious terrorist activities’.
Karunanidhi’s attempt to disparage Lord Rama by asking if Bhagwan Sri Rama was a trained engineer to build such a bridge and if so from which college of engineering did Rama obtain his degree, is silly and objectionable under Section 295 of the IPC. ‘I can turn the query of Karunanidhi on him by asking if he even passed High School exams much less engineering college. Yet so many buildings in the State have been named after him. He has a TV channel named after him’, Swamy said.
