According to the party, Former TN CM Stalin did not say the government “would collapse in three months.” Instead, he meant that the current administration is “heading towards a state where it may not even last three months,” expressing deep concern over its overall performance rather than predicting an actual collapse.
“He had said, ‘We will not criticise and speak about this government for up to six months.’ However, seeing murders, robberies, machete attacks, drug trafficking, petrol bomb incidents, power cuts, farmers’ protests and sexual violence occurring regularly, he questioned how the opposition could remain silent. In that context, he remarked that the government appeared to be moving towards a situation where its survival beyond three months itself seemed uncertain,” the statement read.
