In the case of the 7-year-old girl who went missing in the Senji area, even after a month there has been no information about the girl. In this situation, DMK MP Kanimozhi met the girl’s parents today and offered her condolences.
Following that, she met reporters. At that time, she said, ``Today I went to the home of Hemalatha, the girl who went missing in Senji, and met her parents to offer my condolences. Hemavathi is the second daughter of the couple Bhavani and Vadivelu.
Seven-year-old girl Hemavathi, who studies in second grade, has been missing since the morning after celebrating her birthday. It has now been nearly 35 days since the little child disappeared.
However, the government does not appear to have taken any constructive action to find and rescue the child. As soon as the child went missing, the parents immediately filed a complaint at the police station.
In the case filed in 2013 by Nobel laureate Kailash Satyarthi, the Supreme Court has issued a very clear order. According to it, if a child goes missing, it should not simply be recorded as “missing” in the First Information Report; instead, within 24 hours, the case must be registered under the categories of “Kidnapping” or “Child Trafficking/Sale” (Trafficking). However, in this case, why the authorities have casually recorded it as “missing” remains an inexplicable mystery.
The two major departments, the Child Welfare Department and the Police Department, are both under the direct supervision of Chief Minister Vijay. However, the government is acting sluggishly, showing no concern whatsoever in this matter.
During the election period, it was by looking at these same children, affectionately calling them "friend, friend," and asking them to go home, throw a tantrum, and tell others to vote for him, that he secured the votes and sits in this position today.
In such a situation, it is deeply painful to see such negligence in the safety of the very children who helped gather votes for him.
The Chief Minister was delighted yesterday, feeding cake to children. But the Chief Minister, who went to feed cake to the children, could have at least come in person to the home of the missing girl and offered the parents a word of comfort, saying, "We will definitely find your child for you."
There was no need for the Chief Minister to come either; even the minister in charge of this area did not come in person to offer words of comfort to the family.
The district secretary is immersed in his birthday celebrations.

Along the route we came, they were putting up banners and flags and celebrating in a grand manner, but they do not seem to be making any proper effort to find the missing child.
Even though 35 days have passed since the child went missing, no meaningful action has been taken so far. Nothing has been done from the government side to give the parents even the slightest information about whether the child can be found or where the child is, in a way that would offer them hope or comfort.
This is not just here; since they took office, crimes against children have increased across the state. A large number of children have gone missing. In particular, in Cuddalore alone, there has been the grave tragedy of multiple children going missing in a single day.
College girls, women who go to work, and even a mother and child have gone missing. I do not know what answer this government is going to give for so many incidents. But those in power in this administration are people who, without worrying about anything, do not even have the courage to go in person to the homes of the affected and say a word of comfort.
Because even the Chief Minister is in a state where he is afraid for his own safety. Yesterday, when he went to Kolathur, the moment one of his supporters came near him, he himself became afraid that there was no security for him even under his own rule. That is the kind of government they are running. They are running a low-quality, chaotic government that cannot even provide security to the children from whom they sought votes and came to power.
Never before has Tamil Nadu seen a Chief Minister who, even when mistakes happen in departments under his direct control, remains silent without opening his mouth or taking even the slightest responsibility. Even now, it was only after the DMK insisted that this case be handed over to the CBCID for investigation that the government transferred the case to the CBCID.
If this government acts only after the DMK says so, then why not have the DMK directly in power? Do we have to tell you what to do before you act?

"Children and women will be protected, and not even a single untoward incident will occur," you came to power after making that promise. But crimes against women and children have increased to an extent never seen in Tamil Nadu’s history. No matter what position they hold, even they are not safe. In fact, the tragic situation prevailing in Tamil Nadu today is that there is no safety even from the ruling party itself. Yet they justify even those incidents.
They are making comparisons, saying that so many crimes happened during last year’s Diwali and so many happened the year before that. They themselves are saying, “Last year, under the DMK government, 6 crimes took place; this year, 11 crimes have taken place.”
We had reduced the number of crimes from 11 under the DMK government to 6. But you have taken it back to the old level again. The state of today’s government is such that they themselves are speaking in a way that should make them ashamed. Protests are being held at the district level regarding this incident.

As the next step, we are planning to continue launching protests on behalf of the DMK. Our leader has been consistently stressing this issue and speaking about it. When the Assembly convenes, we can raise our voice there as well.
But those in the ruling party should act with conscience and properly use the police force to prevent such crimes from taking place. Instead of doing that, they are using this government only for their own protection and self-interest.
At the very least, after the crime has occurred, they should identify the culprits and find ways to rescue the missing children and women. Instead of doing that, they have created a situation in which no one has any trust.
Even the Chief Minister today is in a position where he has no confidence that he will be safe under his own rule. Yesterday, on the cake given to schoolchildren, they had written the phrase “All Is Well.” There could be no better irony than this,” he said.
