Dismissing these attempts, he reaffirmed his loyalty to the party president and Chief Minister MK Stalin. "I would continue to remain in the DMK, and there is no question of me leaving the party... I would never surrender to pressure," he declared, emphasising that his political career was built on decades of party service rather than financial gain.The MLA was booked under Sections 352 and 353(2) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023, for allegedly making statements likely to provoke a breach of peace. Radhakrishnan alleged that he had already communicated his intent to comply with a Section 41A notice and appear before police on July 10, but claimed authorities bypassed this procedure to ensure his immediate arrest as an intimidation tactic.Beyond the immediate legal charges, Radhakrishnan launched a scathing attack on the current administration's priorities. He accused the government of ignoring critical social issues in his Srivaikuntam constituency, such as illegal lottery sales, ganja trafficking, and rising crime, while focusing solely on aggressive political retention.
