Speaking to reporters here,he said he had sought to know if BJP was trying to cash in on the GST issue in Mersal and rope in Vijay. However she had unnecessarily misunderstood it and used derogatory remarks against him, he told reporters.

Thirumavalavan, on his way to Salem to attend a party general council meeting, said that the VCK would fight against the practice of usury, GST and communal politics.
He welcomed actor Kamal Hassan directly engaging in social work for the people's cause.
