CHENNAI: DMK's organisation secretary RS Bharathi on Saturday accused AIADMK general secretary Edappadi K Palaniswami and opposition leaders of indulging in false propaganda over women’s safety in Tamil Nadu.
In a statement, Bharathi said the opposition has been attempting to politicise every crime incident by spreading misleading claims that women are unsafe in the State.
Citing recent incidents in Coimbatore and Chennai, he said Palaniswami had rushed to issue statements before facts were established. He pointed out that the Coimbatore case, initially reported as a kidnapping, turned out to be a family dispute.
The missing class 6 girl from Kannagi Nagar was traced and safely returned home within hours by the police, he added. Bharathi said the DMK government under Chief Minister MK Stalin prioritises women’s welfare and would not compromise on their safety.
