    Kanimozhi files papers, assets worth Rs 8.45 crBy: GURU | 25-Nov-2008 Reply | Forward Mrs. Kanimozhi, r u eligible for the MP seat? what did u do for the party? Have you participated for any agitation announced by the party? Have you every jailed for agitations? Because simply you are daughter of MK, that is the main criteria. They are numbers of persons in DMK eligible for MP seat, you have bypassed all caders unethically to capture this seat? Why can't you deny this offers, r u a member of DMK? What is your experience in politics, (don't say childishly that I have been watching my father since my father). Moreover, from where did u get this much money? what is the source of income, what are your husband(s) doing? Sorry for this,
