Law & Order Crisis? CM Vijay Faces Heat Over Chennai Drug Murder & Alleged TVK Gang Rape Case
Weeks into office, Tamil Nadu Chief Minister Vijay’s administration faces severe scrutiny over a crumbling law-and-order situation. In Chennai's Tondiarpet, a 23-year-old youth, Vishnu, was brutally murdered for protesting localized marijuana peddling. The tragedy has triggered widespread street protests and aggressive political blowback. Opponents, including AIADMK's EPS and BJP's Annamalai, slammed the government over the murder and a shocking gang-rape allegation involving TVK functionaries. With DMK MP Kanimozhi also demanding accountability following a recent daylight hacking in Madurai, critics declare the government's political honeymoon period officially over.
