Tamil Nadu chief minister C Joseph Vijay on Monday asked if a blazer could be used only by ‘‘dominant forces’’ and said that his choice of black in his dress had a symbolic value.

In his first rally in Tiruchirappalli after winning the April 23 assembly elections to thank the people of Tiruchi-East assembly segment from where he won and resigned the seat to retain Perambur, Vijay referred to him wearing a blazer and white and black clothes in his public appearances.

He also referred to comments being made about it. Politicians in Tamil Nadu usually wear a white shirt and a dhoti.
