Controversies
He was sacked from Umno in 1995 following allegations that he had paid RM6 million to secure his position as a division chief. who was tied to allegations of corruption in the award of a RM1.3 billion 23-year concession to his company to build the Universiti Teknologi Mara (UiTM) Tapah campus. He is notorious in making racist remark like, 'to slap’ Chinese citizen who complain outside Malaysia
Tajuddin has been described as an "outspoken" member of Parliament. In 2008, he called opposition MP M. Kulasegaran a "bastard" in Parliament and was cited for making sexual innuendos.
On 31 March 2016, Tajuddin again courted controversy when he publicly defended Prime Minister of Malaysia Najib Razak and his wife, Rosmah Mansor for their extravagant lifestyle. He told reporters at Parliament that it is perfectly normal to purchase expensive handbags for significant others to court them. He continues to defend the Prime Minister and his wife's extravagant goods and luxury vacations in response to media reports by whistle-blower Sarawak Report.
On 21 November 2016, Tajuddin faced criticism when he said "The only woman with a 'Kok' (slang as vulgar word) is in Seputeh", referring to Teresa Kok, DAP Member of Parliament for Seputeh. However, he was defended by the Speaker Ronald Kiandee who dismissed it as a reference to her name, not a vulgarity. Member of Parliament for Shah Alam Khalid Samad involved in a heated argument with Tajuddin over his rude remark. On 24 November 2016, a group of Tajuddin supporters from Pasir Salak including his sons entered the restricted area of Malaysia Parliament to insult and assault Khalid who was not hurt as he was shielded by security guards. According to Khalid during a brief press briefing, these guards were receiving punches aimed at himself. A video shows the event where MP Khalid was attacked inside the compound of Malaysian Parliament. In April 2017, eight of the rioters including Tajuddin's son Firdaus Tajuddin were charged and punished under Section 14 of the Act which only gives out a maximum punishment of RM100 fine in the court.
