BJP leader who insulted journalists as monkeys..!?

The incident of tamil Nadu bjp President annamalai criticizing journalists in Cuddalore has sparked a huge controversy. The chennai Journalists' Forum has strongly condemned this. Journalists have been accusing the tamil Nadu bjp leaders of not giving proper answers to the questions asked by the journalists and sometimes speaking in low quality. In particular, a journalist from annamalai called him DMK's slave, which created a stir among journalists.
In a statement issued by them, a few days ago, in a press conference, bjp State President annamalai had talked about diwali alcohol sales figures and had advised minister Senthil balaji to file a case against him and not to threaten journalists. However, within two days today (27-10-2022) in Cuddalore, when journalists tried to ask questions, bjp leader annamalai criticized them by saying that they got angry and jumped around like a monkey on a tree. When asked what the answer to the comment made by minister Senthil balaji is, he is furious that he cannot answer everything about dogs and ghost liquor sellers.
They need not criticize his political reactions. However, the chennai Journalists' Forum strongly condemns annamalai journalists for expressing their anger and calling them monkeys. True journalists are not slaves to the intellectuals, nor are they mercenaries. Politicians should stop the trend of disparaging journalists by identifying them as party and regime.
The increasing trend of intimidation of journalists by politicians in tamil Nadu is regrettable and condemnable. They reiterate that people in public should exercise restraint and urge tamil Nadu bjp President annamalai to express his regret for his words. They hope that will be the politics of health.
