Moopanar rejects charge

By T. Ramakrishnan

CHENNAI, APRIL 30. The TMC president, Mr. G.K. Moopanar, today rejected the charge of the Chief Minister, Mr.M. Karunanidhi, that he denigrated Kamaraj by drawing a comparison with Ms. Jayalalitha.

He reminded Mr. Karunanidhi of how he had hounded out the late Congress leader when he contested for the Nagercoil Lok Sabha seat.

Launching his election campaign here, Mr. Moopanar said ``As an old Congressman, I know how the DMK and Mr. Karunanidhi carried on a vicious campaign against the late Kamaraj. I don't want to say anything more''.Urging the voters to support the candidates of the AIADMK-led front, the TMC leader said, ``MGR rule should be restored and Ms. Jayalalitha should be made the Chief Minister again''.
