Former AIADMK coordinator O. Panneerselvam on Monday criticised the DMK government over the law and order situation in Tamil Nadu. He charged that DMK partymen were also involved in these violent incidents. In a statement, he referred to the murders in Chennai, Cuddalore, Kanniyakumari, Pudukkottai, Karur, Krishnagiri, among others and contended that the Chief Minister had the duty to maintain the law and order situation in the State, as it was deteriorating. โIf this situation continues, the industrial growth in Tamil Nadu will be affected, and it will affect the economy,โ he said. He further urged for government intervention in this issue.
