144 was imposed by the police and ordered not to stage the drama. In the drama a song of Viswanathadas used to humiliate the public. The ban order was imposed particularly for this song. Immediately Kamaraj sent Thirumangalam Puli Iyer to Sivakasi Sub-Collector for getting permission to stage the drama with an assurance of not signing that particular song in the drama,. According Puli Iyer got the permission.

Drama was staged at Rajapalayam. The situation became riots. Kamaraj sent his men wherever the riot took place and embbelted them.

In 1979 when Kamaraj expressed the grievances the ruling party challenged them. He met the challenges. He took action according to the pulse of the party men.

He questioned the ruling party about their promise of giving 3 measures of Rice per Rupee  and whether they could give it. He also blamed that they did not know what to do and did not know to tell what they could do. They had given cheap promises and the ministers said that they would work without salary , reduce the tax and increase the facilities . But what happened , increased tax.
