The most senior politician, the Chief Minister, M Karunanidhi has created a cult of personality. The irony that his sons name is ‘Stalin’ is probably lost on the masses.
Last week was The Great Leaders Birthday and a whopping £25,000 was spent on giant posters and flags throughout the city that wouldn’t look out of place in Pyongyang.
My favorite poster depicted his bald head as a pearl in an oyster shell. Fallon, Ogilvy, Saatchi – you’ve got nothing on this !
