CHENNAI: The culmination of the BJP's Tamarai Yatirai, christened as Chennai
Porattam (Chennai agitation) was a big draw throwing traffic out of gear on
GST Road and the fact that the saffron party was able to pull in such huge
crowds raised many eyebrows.

The valedictory event of the yatirai evidently tried to compete with main
stream Dravidian parties by putting up huge digital banners, posters,
festoons and party flags besides lifesize hoardings of State BJP chief Pon
Radhakrishnan with Nitin Gadkari on arterial roads of the city and its
suburbs.

Interestingly, a big chunk of the crowd wore 'Pon Radhakrishnan masks' and
raised Bharat Mata Ki Jai, slogan when party leaders spoke. Cadres came in
huge numbers from various districts of the State and vehicles of all sizes
hired by party men clogged vehicular movement on the GST Road.

Tamarai yatirai began in November last with a five point agenda. The main
demand was scholarship for poor Hindu students on a par with minorities.
Good governance, priority for farm sector, reining in price rise, protection
to temples and its properties were the other demands. The yatirai traversed
over 9000 km covering all districts in the State.

Taking a vow that his party would send MLAs to the assembly, Pon
Radhakrishnan said the first voice of party members in the legislature would
be to demand scholarship for poor Hindu students
