Tamil Nadu BJP President Annamalai has criticized the ruling DMK government for its failure to address the growing issue of crimes against women and children, particularly the rise in sexual harassment, rape, and murder. He pointed out that these incidents are becoming increasingly common, and the media is dominated by such reports, creating fear in society, especially pushing women back into traditional, restrictive roles.
Annamalai shared a list of serious crimes on his official X account, questioning whether Chief Minister MK Stalin is unconcerned by the alarming rise in such incidents, as the DMK government has failed to take significant action. It is noteworthy here that despite Stalin’s recent pledge in the assembly to implement stricter laws to combat crimes against women, these promises have remained unfulfilled, with no real changes visible on the ground.
TN BJP chief Annamalai via his official X accounted stated, “My heart aches reading the news that comes out every day in Tamil Nadu. Our society is becoming so unsafe that not a day goes by without sexual crimes against women. Before the shock of the news of a Krishnagiri government school girl being sexually assaulted by three teachers subsided, today morning alone, there were reports of crimes against women such as the sexual harassment of a fourth-grade student by private school administrators in Manapparai, the sexual harassment of a pregnant woman travelling in a train in Vellore and pushed off from the train, the sexual harassment of a government school girl by a physical education teacher in Salem, and the murder of a panchayat vice-chairman’s wife by entering the house in Tirupattur. Where is Tamil Nadu going? The DMK runs a useless government based on the principle that “as is the king so are the subjects” and using the state machinery to protect the criminals if they are DMK members has led to the fact that today anti-social elements have no fear of the law or the police. Doesn’t it bother you, Chief Minister @mkstalin, from adults women to small children, are not safe in Tamil Nadu?”
தமிழகத்தில் ஒவ்வொரு நாளும் வெளியாகும் செய்திகளைப் படிக்கும்போது மனம் பதைபதைக்கிறது. பெண்களுக்கு எதிரான பாலியல் குற்றங்கள் நடைபெறாத நாளே இல்லை என்னும் அளவுக்கு, நமது சமூகம் பாதுகாப்பற்றதாக மாறி வருகிறது.
கிருஷ்ணகிரி அரசுப் பள்ளி மாணவி, மூன்று ஆசிரியர்களால் பாலியல் வன்கொடுமை…
