Tamil Nadu govt ad refers to CM Palaniswami as 'God'
The Tamil Nadu government has commissioned an advertisement in which CM EK Palaniswami is called "sami (God)". The advertisement, played at a movie theatre, shows a disabled woman seeking to perform a puja in "sami's name" after getting a job. When the priest asks her which sami, she says, "Palaniswami", adding, "He is the sami that gave me a job."
