Chennai, July 6:
The AIADMK on Sunday launched a strong attack on the ruling Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK), alleging a complete breakdown of law and order in Tamil Nadu and claiming that the government is preoccupied with securing its survival through “horse-trading.”
Citing a series of recent criminal incidents across the State, the party said the situation reflects a serious lapse in governance and public safety. It pointed to cases including the stabbing of a 19-year-old woman in Erode after she refused a marriage proposal, a double murder near Kallidaikurichi, the recovery of a missing 17-year-old girl’s body from a well in Thanjavur, and the alleged sexual assault of a 60-year-old woman in Arcot.
The AIADMK alleged that instead of addressing such issues, the ruling dispensation is focused on garnering legislative support to remain in power. It described the current administration as one sustained through political defections and alignments.
The party also criticised the condition of Amma Unavagam canteens, stating that the subsidised food scheme introduced by former Chief Minister J. Jayalalithaa has been neglected. It accused the government of allowing the scheme to deteriorate as part of political vendetta.
Overall, the AIADMK claimed that Tamil Nadu is witnessing a decline in both law enforcement and welfare delivery, urging immediate corrective measures to restore governance standards in the State.
