Alarming visuals have surfaced showing instances of drug abuse in a secluded area near the DMK party headquarters in Chennai, raising concerns about the effectiveness of the Tamil Nadu government’s efforts to curb drug-related activities. The footage, exclusively accessed by India Today, reveals individuals consuming alcohol and drugs in a space located next to prominent landmarks, including a central government office, a metro station, and the DMK’s Anbagam office on Anna Salai.
The location, despite being in the heart of the city, has reportedly been used by anti-social elements as a hub for substance abuse. The secluded nature of the spot has allowed these activities to continue unchecked despite the area’s proximity to key government buildings.
This revelation has cast a spotlight on the ongoing drug abuse challenge faced by the DMK government in controlling the growing drug menace in Tamil Nadu. Despite efforts to tackle the issue, this incident has sparked criticism, with opposition parties accusing the government of failing to address the problem effectively, even in high-profile areas under its jurisdiction.
