It is worth noting here that the media and activists in supporting of the DMK regime in Tamil Nadu are completely silent on this issue.
Indu Makkal Katchi has questioned the hypocrisy of these activists and media who hyped the floating of dead bodies in Ganga River in Uttar Pradesh for their stoic silence on this matter.
