Great Leader vs Community Leader

A proxy battle between two veteran leaders claiming to be our community’s shining light are taking place in various shapes.

A Tamil daily, backed by the ‘Community Leader’, has been hitting hard on the ‘Great Leader’ by consistently writing about the sudden death of drama actress K Sujatha and the apparent mismanagement of Maika Holdings.

The attacks got a bit stronger last week with the double dose on Sujatha and Maika.

Seeing this the "Great Leader’s’ daily ran an advertisement yesterday and today stating that an exclusive report would be carried on Sunday on how the ‘Community Leader’-run Nesa cooperative was in a financial mess.

The daily claimed that the ‘Community Leader’ had given out loans to his friends and that there were many sordid tales of mismanagement.

‘Community Leader’ responded today in the daily which backs him. He alluded that his cooperative was in better shape than Maika. He said Nesa had paid dividends (unlike Maika) and had not cheated the poor lots who invested in it.

We now await the fight back by the ‘Great Leader’ or his chums.
