Shanmugam in the Secretariat on May 13 with regard to COVID-19 relief activities.Later, while briefing the media about alleged humiliation meted out to them at the Chief Secretary’s office, “he (Mr. Maran) had unintentionally uttered the word ‘Thazhthapattavargal’ (a reference to Dalits) instead of ‘Thaazhvaga (lowly).’ The entire speech would reveal the same.On the very next day, he had clarified the same and “stated that his intention was never to hurt anyone and if at all his words had hurt the feelings of anyone, he regrets the same. Having clarified, the said issue was put to rest.” Mr Maran accused the complainant M. Jeganathan of having lodged a complaint with an ulterior motive on May 18.In his petition, Mr. Baalu said, he had not been listed as an accused in the FIR registered against Mr. Maran.
