The Nadigar Sangam President Nasser has lodged a complaint to the Chennai Commisioner of Police regarding certain members of the Nadigar Sangam who regularly cause trouble by using abusive language and issuing death threats. In his petition Nasser has alleged that member Varagi had wanted clarifications regarding the functioning of the sangam and on at 11.30am on 27.8.2016 trustee and executive committee member Poochi Murugan, Sriman, Premkumar, Udaya along with the legal adviser Krishna Ravindran were available to brief him but instead he left the building but near the gate he had summoned the media and started giving confusing interviews.
