The AIADMK chief said, “How many more days will Mr. Stalin’s DMK government go through law and order problems, calling it ‘personally motivated killings’? I strongly condemn Mr. Stalin, who has no administrative skills and disregards the law. To the extent that the criminals have no fear of the law or the state police protecting it.” To maintain law and order, I urge the CM of the DMK-led government to arrest all those involved in the above crimes and initiate appropriate legal action and shift focus on photo shoots and partisanship. turned politics into its primary duty of maintaining law and order.”
