Horlicks bottles and Union Minister Alagiri

AIADMK General Secretary Selvi Jayalalitha suspected a link between the disappearance of a consignment of the beverage and the free distribution of Horlicks to the people at a recent medical camp in her Andipatti constituency by Union minister M K Alagiri.


Referring to reports that about 9,000 bottles of Horlicks, brought from Haryana to a godown near Sholavandan in Madurai district, went missing on July 12, she said the lorry owner had to move the Madurai bench of the Madras high court after the police refused to register a complaint.


Alleging that Alagiri had doled out bottles of the beverage to about 8,700 people at Andipatti on July 18 as part of chief minister M Karunanidhi’s birthday celebrations, Jayalalithaa said there was a suspicion among the public whether there was a link with the bottles that disappeared. She also demanded that the state government recommend a CBI probe into the incident as the Union minister was suspected to have a “link”.


We request the Tamil Nadu Government to find out the real culprits who have stolen the Horlicks Bottles and to clear the doubts from peoples mind.
