Modi Ignored Tamil Nadu — But Suddenly Madurai Needs Him?
A single viral post from @kalgikumaru has tamil Twitter absolutely losing it — and it’s not hard to see why. narendra modi is heading to madurai, and instead of the usual welcome parade, this no-holds-barred tamil thread just unloaded a machine-gun list of every alleged hypocrisy, U-turn, and scandal the “great man” has been accused of. zero filter. Pure savage. And it ends with the coldest election reality check you’ll read all year.
1. The Man Who Skipped Manipur
The “maamanithar” (great man) who never found time to visit Manipur during its worst violence is suddenly making time for Madurai. Coincidence? The thread says nah — elections are coming, so now the photo-ops matter.
2. Floods for Thee, But Not for Me
₹1000 crore was rushed to the gujarat floods within hours. Thoothukudi and Nellai drowning in tamil Nadu? Complete radio silence. The thread calls it out cold: selective compassion depending on the vote bank.
3. The ₹7.5 Lakh Crore Scam King
CAG report allegedly exposed ₹7.5 lakh crore in government scams, and the man at the top is still rolling into madurai like nothing happened. The post labels him the “fountainhead of corruption” who once claimed he “treated dead bodies as a doctor” — brutal callback included.
4. Privatisation & Swadeshi Hypocrisy
He privatised indian Railways insurance and multiple public sectors, built the Statue of Unity with Chinese parts using ₹3000 crore of public money while calling it “swadeshi,” and removed all passenger concessions on trains. The thread mocks him as the “Gujarat businessman” buying opposition leaders at premium rates.
5. Demonetisation, petrol Prices & Farmer Protests
The man who promised to slash petrol-diesel prices but kept them sky-high, who made the entire country stand in ATM lines during demonetisation, who hiked rice tax while cutting wheat tax (hello, “gomahan”), and who looked the other way during delhi farmers’ protests — yeah, that guy is coming to Madurai.
6. The ₹10 Lakh Suit “Poor Brother”
Wears clothes worth ten lakh rupees once and still calls himself the “poor brother” of the people. The sarcasm in the tamil original is nuclear, and the english version hits just as hard.
And the killer closer that has everyone sharing it:
“Oh… elections are coming. If his government returns, he won’t even need to visit madurai again. Because there won’t be any elections left.”
Bottom line:
This isn’t just another political jab — it’s a full-on cultural gut punch from the Dravidian heartland right before Modi steps foot in Madurai. Whether you love him or loathe him, the thread perfectly captures the exact anger and frustration boiling in tamil Nadu right now. One image of Modi in his white kurta and golden shawl, paired with this list, and the internet did the rest.
Election season just got spicy. Pass the filter coffee and watch the fireworks.
