eps rides a bike to express condolences

Former Chief Minister Edappadi K. Palaniswami on Sunday rode a moped to pay homage to a deceased relative in his village.

On Sunday, Mr. Palaniswami went to his native village Siluvampalayam near Edappadi to celebrate Pongal festival. While celebrating the festival with his family members, he got information that one of his relatives Palanisamy from the same village had died. Immediately the former chief minister borrowed a moped from a local journalist who had come to cover the Pongal celebrations and went to his relative’s house. His Personal Security Officer (PSO) drove the moped. Local journalists and party officials recorded it and uploaded it on social media and the video went viral on Monday.
