 But now when we go down (to the ground), the true sentiment is that they feel that these people were punished for asking for their rights.  “And because this was reflected in the general election result, they feel that the government is not adhering to their sentiments

This is the third time they are doing so. Samy have tried, Murugesan have tried, now is Vigneswaran is trying.
