Tamil Nadu Opposition Leader and AIADMK leader Edappadi K Palaniswami has criticized the DMK government’s handling of the flood situation in the state. Palaniswami visited the flood-affected areas in Krishnagiri district and expressed his concern over the government’s inaction.“The DMK government has failed to take adequate measures to prevent waterlogging, despite warnings from the weather department,” Palaniswami said. “The government’s approach to flood management is inadequate, and it needs to take a more comprehensive approach to address the issue.”
Palaniswami also pointed out that the government had ignored the concerns of the opposition parties and the people. “The government is not listening to our concerns, and it is not taking adequate measures to address the flood situation,” he said.
The AIADMK leader also criticized Chief Minister M.K. Stalin’s claims on flood management in Chennai. “The chief minister’s claims that the city’s waterlogging issues have been resolved within 24 hours are misleading,” Palaniswami said. “The reality is that many areas in Chennai are still waterlogged, and the government’s efforts to clear the water are inadequate.”
