BJP leader Tamilisai Soundararajan met reporters in Chennai. At that time, she said, ``Law and order in the state is not satisfactory. A large number of people are going missing; especially many children are in a situation where they are disappearing. Ministers are speaking inconsistently, each telling a different story. How is this government functioning? you ask me..." Even as she was speaking, the power was cut off. Smiling, she said, ``I had thought I shouldn’t talk about power cuts.
Before I could even answer about the current situation of how this government is, the power itself had already said it. At the same time, this cannot be compared with the previous DMK government either.
There is a big difference between a five-year rule and a six-month rule. So, no immediate conclusion can be drawn based on this short period of governance. However, it is true that law and order is not as good as the public expects.
At the same time, some legislators are performing very well, as people expect. But various allegations are being made against some legislators. All young members with limited experience should remain calm, correct their conduct, and act accordingly. I believe the Chief Minister’s guidance meeting will show them the right path.
It appears that Minister Rajmohan said that we will take action only if the District Collector himself files a direct complaint regarding the obscene text message that was sent. I have a differing opinion on this approach. We cannot expect all women who are subjected to sexual assault or sexual harassment to come forward immediately and file a complaint in person. While we must be careful not to falsely accuse anyone by mistake, it is not the right position to say that action will be taken only if women come forward on their own and file a complaint.
Even if one is the District Collector, there are times when one may hesitate to speak openly about certain matters. It cannot be said that everyone will come forward and speak without hesitation. Even in the Gem Veeramani case, they escaped punishment in the previous administration by citing the reason that there was not enough evidence. Can all the affected people gather the evidence for their complaints themselves and come forward? Therefore, instead of giving excuses such as there is no evidence or the affected women did not come forward directly to file a complaint, the government should take strict action in any case of sexual harassment against women. I believe that a very serious approach is essential in this matter," he said.
