On Monday, the news channel organised the programme in Vallalar Thidal where Dharmapuri MP A Mani, Palacode MLA KP Anbalagan and NTK state organiser M Santhosh Kumar participated.

During the event, a heated argument took place on the implementation of the Cauvery Surplus scheme and the shifting of Dharmapuri bus stand overnight.

When Mani refused to allow Anbalagan to respond to queries, an argument broke out. Soon, the cadres started hurling chairs on stage. Following this, the event was cancelled. A few people sustained minor injuries.
