AIADMK leader Palaniswami criticizes deteriorating law and order in Tamil Nadu, calls for police action against criminals.
AIADMK general secretary Edappadi K. Palaniswami on Thursday reiterated his allegation that law and order was deteriorating in the State.
In a statement, Mr. Palaniswami referred to a number of incidents of crime in and around Chennai and said that they had “exposed the insecurity” of women, especially when it came to travelling at night. At least from now on, the police should be given a free hand to deal with anti-social elements, he added.

The Union and State governments provided support in several ways to the needy people, but private institutions should also extend help, especially to those requiring medical assistance, said C.P. Rajkumar, Managing Director, Nalam Multispeciality Hospital, here on Saturday. Speaking at a function to honour Inspector General of Police V. Balakrishnan and neurologist S. Meenakshisundaram with C. Palaniappan Memorial Award for their contribution to society and Nalam Kappom medical adoption of Type-1 diabetic children, he said the governments implemented numerous welfare programmes, but the timely help by a private hospital or a doctor in the neighbourhood to the people in need would go a long way in safeguarding their lives.
