Law and order situation in TN continues to remain critical: Vasan
Why it matters
G.K. Vasan, the president of the Tamil Maanila Congress, has publicly condemned the DMK government's handling of law and order in Tamil Nadu, describing the situation as 'critical.' He pointed to a recent gang rape incident involving a college student in Coimbatore as a significant factor raising concerns about women's safety in the state. Vasan attributed the rise in crime, including murder, robbery, and drug-related offenses, to the rampant circulation of narcotic substances. He criticized the DMK for being a 'mute spectator' to these issues and claimed that public sentiment is turning against the ruling party due to its failure to fulfill electoral promises made during the 2021 assembly elections. Vasan suggested that the growing anti-incumbency sentiment could favor the AIADMK-BJP alliance in upcoming elections, indicating a potential shift in political power in Tamil Nadu.
