SONIA IGNORED KARUNANIDHI- FEELS DMK

10-10-10


--------- EXCLUSIVE-------


Confusion worst confounded
SONIA GANDHI VISIT TO TRICHY

WARMTH IS MISSING  FROM SONIA GANDHI
ON  KARUNANIDHI  - DMK feels so 


By R Rajagopalan


Sonia Gandhi visit to Trichy in Tamil Nadu on Friday
has created a confounded confusion in the minds of 
senior DMK leaders.And thereby future politics of Tamil Nadu.

DMK second ranking leaders feel that Sonia Gandhi did not
show her usual respect to Karunanidhi. 

At the age of 87, Karunanidhi drove to Chennai airport to receive
Sonia Gandhi. DMK leaders expected Sonia Gandhi to share her mind
in private for half an hour- on irritant issues like 2G and Ayodhya.
Later of course about the Tamil Nadu assembly elections.

But Sonia Gandhi just after receiving the flower bouquet abruptly
left the VVIP lounge of the Airport to get into an helicopter.

HOW DMK LEADERS REACT ON 
SONIA GANDHI VISIT TO TRICY?

One section of DMK feels that the mindset of Sonia Gandhi
has since changed. Sonia Gandhi should have shown courtesy 
to Karunanidhi -atleast to his age of 87.This is how "inner ring"
leaders of DMK comment.

SONIA GANDHI VISIT CREATED MORE 
CONFUSION IN DMK MINDSET

One
DMK leader Karunanidhi disappointed with Sonia Gandhi not 
showing warmth 

Two 
Does it mean  Sonia Gandhi begun to ignore Karunanidhi?

Three 
Does it also mean that she would like to toe the line of politics 
of her son Rahul Gandhi in ignoring DMK?

Four
Rahul Gandhi articulation for the past three years and his
influence on his mother  Sonia Gandhi is so strong that she also
got carried away by abruptly walking away with the flower bouquet 
at Meenambakkam airport on Friday.

Five
DMK has begun to speculate that two or three Congress leaders
holding high positions in the UPA2 are misleading Rahul Gandhi
and thereby Sonia Gandhi-

Sixth
DMK inner circle leaders feel that one or two Tamil Nadu Congress
leaders who hold high positions in Centre-are the crucial personalities
to create a differences between DMK and AICC

Seventh and most important is 

DMK is concerned with the sudden shfit of Sonia Gandhi
attitude towards Karunanidhi- with Friday meeting with Sonia
Karunanidhi bacakdrop the DMK speculates whether there
is  any serious plans afoot from AICC that in Tamil Nadu
elections in April 2011- TNCC will lead a third front with PMK
and Vijaykant?

WHY SONIA GANDHI TRICHY A FLOP SHOW?

In Trichy where Sonia Gandhi addressed Friday Congress meeting
is estimated as  35-40 thousands crowd. 

When Karunanidhi addressed in the same venue in August he
attracted one lakh and odd.

But in July for Jayalalitha a remarkable crowd of 3.5 lakhs cheered her

TNCC does not have cadre accepts TNCC leader
Atleast with crowd statistics one would estimate the cadre strength of Congress in Tamil Nadu.

Comparing this, a senior DMK Minister gave an illustration.
Why P Chidambaram winning margin in 2009 LokSabha drastically
fell? In 2004 he won with a margin of one and half lakh votes,
Chidambaram downloaded almost all the 28 nationalised banks
branches in each street of Sivaganga..Banks growth was more than
the Tamil Nadu congress workers cadre? It is not DMK fault
commented a senior  DMK leader

Comparing Chidambaram's Sivaganga with Palanimanickam's
Thanjaur parliamentary constituency just an  adjacent constituency 
Chidambaram winning marging why drastically been reduced.
in 2009 and a huge increase in Palani manickam winning margin. 
Does this also  not reflect that TNCC does not have cadre strength.

WHY TAMIL MEDIA NOT PLAY UP SONIA GANDHI VISIT TO TRICHY?

At the same time senior TNCC leaders are unhappy with the 
tamil print media not playing up Sonia trichy show.
TNCC leaders suspect that DMK might have played foul
by calling up tamil dailies. Though this is a usual state government
pressure on media, but TNCC leaders suspect so.

Tamil media did not provide  prominent display
Largest circulated tamil dailies did not give a good display
to Sonia Gandhi addressing mammoth meeting  in Trichy 

PURPOSE OF SONIA GANDHI VISIT TO TRICHY

Sonia Gandhi went to Trichy to induct a powerful Thevar leader
S Thirunaukarasar from BJP to TNCC. He merged his partymen into TNCC
before Sonia Gandhi on Friday.Arasar is a powerful Thevar leader
in his assembly constituency.He joined BJP and Vajpayee inducted
Arsar in NDA government.
