Our Homage to the three young staff of “Dinakaran”, who were killed by supporters of M.K.Azhagiri on 9-5-2007.

Three innocent young people killed in Madurai “Dinakaran” Tamil Daily News paper office on 9-5-2007, when protesters threw petrol bombs at the office building. We have already published the matter during 2007 in our blog with pictures.
This is due to supporters of the Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK) party in Tamil Nadu were protesting against the publication of an opinion poll that did not favor their leader MK Azhagiri, son of M.Karunanidhi, Tamilnadu Chief Minister.



The protestors set fire to the office of the Tamil daily Dinakaran in the temple town of Madurai, some 350 km south of Tamil Nadu state capital Chennai. In the fire accident, Two computer operators and a peon died of suffocation, The poll showed that only 2 percent of voters in Tamil Nadu wanted Azhagiri to succeed his father, state Chief Minister M Karunanidhi, as leader of the DMK party. Azhagiri is the Karunanidhi's eldest son. The poll indicated that 70 percent of voters wanted MK Stalin, Karunanidhi's younger son to succeed their father. Another 2 percent wanted Kanimozhi, Katrunanidhi's daughter to succeed him. The violence was due to a direct result of the succession struggle within the DMK party.




Tamil Nadu State Secretary Indian Communist [M&L] Thiru Pandian explained to ‘Junior Vikatan” reporter, “during the last one year the CBI has not taken any initiative in this case. The people who are all arrested are all came in bail.”


Political leaders are thinking our people are all idiots and doing whatever they want for aiming their power in Politics. At least, our people must now realize, and take a vow to get rid of them from politics. To the departed young staff of “Dinakaran” and to their families, we convey our condolence.
