The Director General of Police must take action against the personnel who allegedly failed to act, says the AIADMK co-coordinator.
AIADMK co-coordinator Edappadi K. Palaniswami on Thursday demanded the police to take strict action against persons who assaulted cadres of the Naam Tamilar Katchi at a public meeting near Morappur in Dharmapuri earlier this week.
In a statement, he said the attack by the members of the DMK cadre was condemnable. “The fact that the police personnel present at venue remained mute spectators is a murder of democracy,” Mr. Palaniswami said.
The former Chief Minister claimed that during the erstwhile AIADMK government, all political parties were allowed to function in a democratic manner and several thousand protests were allowed during the past four years.
