A video clip of two DMK men removing and throwing away two flex boards embossed with the name and picture of âAmma' from a state-run canteen in Chennai went viral on Tuesday and they were expelled from the party.
The party filed a police complaint against them and the duo was arrested, DMK leader and former Mayor of Chennai, Ma Subramanian told reporters.
âAmma' is a popular moniker of late chief minister and AIADMK supremo J Jayalalithaa. The low-cost âAmma Canteens' are run by civic bodies in Tamil Nadu.
"Today we got a message, Amma canteen was vandalised in Chennai. We got to know that 2 people were involved in this. These two are just ordinary DMK cadres, they don't hold a post in DMK. We ourselves gave a complaint about these two and they were arrested," Subramanian said.
