Karaikal BJP Member Assaulted; Wife & Child Verbally Abused By Intoxicated VCK Cadre

A few days ago, a BJP executive from Karaikal was assaulted by Viduthalai Chiruthaigal Katchi cadre in Bhuvanagiri in Cuddalore district of Tamil Nadu when he was returning home after getting treatment done for their paralytic daughter in Andhra Pradesh. A Ashvathaman of the Tamil Nadu Bharatiya Janata Party condemned this incident and also the lack of action from the TN Police for even registering an FIR.

Speaking to the press, he said, “On 23 September 2024, the Karaikal BJP Agriculture Team District Secretary Vijay Kumar was going to Andhra Pradesh with his family. His girl child is a paralytic patient, and they had gone to AP for treatment, and he was on his way back to Karaikal via Bhuvanagiri. At this place, thugs and antisocial elements belonging to VCK, led by VCK’s union secretary Mullai Maran at the highest alcohol intoxication started making an issue. Even a person who wants to create trouble would let go if someone else is with their family. But in such a situation, they beat him up and injured him, abusing his wife and child verbally. They also tore the bJP flag on his vehicle and created a commotion.”

He further said, “On 24 September 2024, Vijay Jumar was admitted to a hospital. On 25 September 2025, we gave a complaint to the District SP but to date, they have not filed an FIR. We will share the CCTV footage with all of you We got these from a shopkeeper. But you know what, TN Police has threatened that shopkeeper for giving us the footage. Are the TN police supporting the anti-social behavior and atrocities committed by the VCK? VCK thinks it is an advantage if women and children are there and commit anarchy. This is how Thirumavalavan has trained his cadre. This is the disgusting level of anarchy that VCK is unleashing across the state. To top this, they are going to conduct an alcohol prohibition conference. First Thirumavalavan has to implement this anti-alcohol stance to his own cadre.”

He then said, “We want to tell Thirumavalavan that he must ensure that Mullai Maran is first removed from his post and then conduct the alcohol prohibition conference. Your party men are creating problems for people with families under the influence of alcohol. You do not question that, but you want to preach to the society?”

Asuwathaman further said, “We are giving a deadline of 3 days to the TN police. If they do not arrest the thugs from VCK in Cuddalore, we BJP members will be forced to come together in large numbers and sit in a protest. We issue this warning to the police.”
