A video featuring DMK leader Dayanidhi Maran has surfaced, potentially posing challenges for the unity of the INDIA bloc as the country gears up for the upcoming Lok Sabha contest. In this video, Maran allegedly draws comparisons between the job prospects of those who have studied Hindi and those proficient in English. However, party sources claim that the video is old.

In the video, Dayanidhi Maran is heard suggesting that individuals who have studied only Hindi in Bihar are engaged in tasks like "building houses" and "cleaning toilets" in Tamil Nadu. He juxtaposes this with individuals who have studied English, stating that they now earn significant salaries in IT companies.

While the video has gone viral on social media, its authenticity is disputed, with party sources asserting that it is an old video. Nonetheless, its circulation has sparked discussions and could have potential implications for the political landscape leading up to the Lok Sabha elections.
