Tamil Nadu BJP leader Tamilisai Soundararajan has put an end to all the specualtions that arose after a video in which Union Home Minister Amit Shah appeared to be talking in a serious way, while pointing fingers at her, went viral on social media. The former Telagana Governor called the speculations "unwarranted"and stressed she was just being advised by the Home Minister.

The brief exchange between the two leaders was captured at the oath-taking ceremony of Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu.

As Soundararajan greeted Amit Shah as she walks past him, the Union Minister calls her back and starts talking to her, in what seemed like a rather serious discussion. This created a buzz on the social media regarding the naure of their conversation and several leaders began slammimg the saffron party based on their deductions.

Issuing a clarification on the row, Soundararajan, stated that the Union Minister was misjudged and that he was merely advising her to carry out her political duties intensively.

As i was eloborating,due to paucity of time with utmost concern he adviced to carry out the political and constituency work intensively which was reassuring. This is to clarify all unwarranted speculations around," Soundararajan posted on X.

While targetting BJP over the video, DMK Spokesperson Saravanan Annadurai questioned Amit Shah on Wednesday,"What kind of politics is this? Is it polite to put a prominent female politician of Tamil Nadu on stage and express harsh words or threatening body language? Does Amit Shah not know that everyone will see this? Very wrong example!"

Former Union Minister and DMK leader Dayanidhi Maran had also criticised Amit Shah over the video, calling it "unfortunate" and "most unwelcomed".
