‘Political Storm’ in Tamil Nadu: Protests Erupt Over Udhayanidhi Stalin’s Arrest

A major political uproar has erupted in Tamil Nadu following the arrest of opposition leader Udhayanidhi Stalin over alleged derogatory remarks made against actress Trisha Krishnan. A case has been registered against him under six sections of the law. Protests have broken out across the state following the arrest; while DMK cadres have taken to the streets to oppose the move, several other parties—including TVK and BJP—have strongly condemned Udhayanidhi’s statement and are demanding action.
