Let him work and prove himself. It will not be right to criticize him before then. People have given him a chance. Let him do good work.”

He suggested that any political party should be free to expand its activities wherever it chooses.Replying to the question, he said: “What’s the problem if the Tamil Nadu party that achieved victory in Kerala starts? If he is coming, let him come. Let him come wherever (Kerala) wants, let him start. Let him come wherever (Kerala) wants, let him start.”
