Speaking to reporters after presiding over a cadre's marriage, Thirumavalavan said, "Fielding CP Radhakrishnan as Vice President candidate shows the BJP's focus is on Tamil Nadu, but it is not necessary to support him only for the Tamil identity, because the election is for the welfare of India and mainly between BJP or non-BJP parties."
