Chennai, Nov 11:
Chief Minister and Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK) president C. Joseph Vijay convened a crucial meeting of all party MLAs at a luxury resort in Mahabalipuram on Wednesday, marking six months of his government amid escalating attacks from opposition parties over governance and legislator misconduct.
The closed-door consultative session was attended by TVK general secretary and minister N. Anand, along with ministers Aadhav Arjuna, CTR Nirmal Kumar, and A. Rajmohan. The leadership addressed mounting public scrutiny following allegations against Kallakurichi MLA C. Arul Vignesh regarding inappropriate conduct toward the district collector and the assault of a petitioner by Thuraiyur MLA and Assembly Deputy Speaker M. Ravisankar.
Party sources indicated that the leadership is reviewing reports submitted by an internal inquiry committee and issuing stern directives to legislators on constituency discipline, ethical conduct, and public accountability as the opposition AIADMK and DMK intensify their criticism of the administrationās law and order record.
