knowing well that he followed Anna when Anna left DMK (and pointed out some unfavourable incidents as a reason for leaving)?
Ofcourse! Anna & Co left DK after Periyar's controversial marriage with young Maniyammai ,when he was old ..But politically it is said Anna & Co was seraching for reasons to start a new movement since periyar was against making his movement invloving in election .

But when Anna &co left Periyar and started the party DMK ,they reserved the president seat of the party for periyar and until periyar's death it was unoccupied(Anna was general seceratary of the party) .Even when Periyar teamed up with kamarajar and campaign against DMK ,DMK and Anna never utter a word against periyar .When DMK came to power for the first time ,Anna met Periyar and dedicated their victory to periyar..So all along Anna,kalainjar ,MGR always treated periyar as their leader.

Moreover Kalainjar was very close with periyar ,stayed with him and worked in periyar journal 'Viduthalai'.For kalainjar Periyar is always the 'Thalaivar' for him and Anna is always his 'Vazhi Kaati'
