Chennai: AIADMK minister Dindigul C Srinivasan was caught on camera when he was getting ready for a press meet. Srinivasan started searching for the logo of News J, a channel recently started by Tamil Nadu chief minister K Palaniswami and deputy chief minister  O Paneerselvam. Srinivas was seen loudly reading out the names of the news channels by looking at the mikes. He asked where the mike and logo of their channel (News J) was. “Couldn't you keep at least a paper for the sake of it?” he was seen asking. This video is an example of how politicians are power-hungry and are worried about matters such as this than the actual work related to their portfolios. Srinivasan's comment publicly calling the channel his is a mirror to how politicians use media to their advantage.
