He added, "Instead of protecting the welfare and rights of farmers, the Chief Minister is more concerned about protecting his own government." Challenging the Chief Minister's outreach efforts in the long-pending water issue, he stated, "When farmers across Tamil Nadu united against this TVK government, the Chief Minister staged a drama by announcing that he would travel to Karnataka.
