When a scribe asked during the past two years, his government has registered many achievements while facing criticisms on a few issues, the chief minister said, “I take whatever is good and ignore whatever is bad.”
The chief minister also said: “Before assuming office, I said, this government is for all – those who voted for this and those who did not. I also promised that this government will function in a way to make those who voted for this government happy and make those who failed to vote regret why they failed to vote for this government. This government’s functioning continues on this line.”
Later, the chief minister visited the residence of his father and former Chief Minister M Karunanidhi at Gopalapuram and paid homage to the portrait of Karunanidhi and received the blessings of his mother Dayalu Ammal.
