Tamil Nadu law and order concerns

Overview

PMK president Anbumani Ramadoss has raised concerns regarding public safety and the law and order situation in Tamil Nadu. In late September, Ramadoss called for the phased closure of all liquor shops in the state within three years, arguing that the social and economic costs of alcohol addiction, such as accidents and suicides, outweigh the annual revenue generated by the trade.

During this period, he also highlighted various violent incidents, including murders in Tirunelveli, Chennai, and Salem, stating that the government must ensure citizens can live without fear. In October, Ramadoss intensified his criticism of the state's ability to protect citizens following a fatal home invasion in the Thoothukuppadi district. He criticized local police for failing to monitor a known dispute that led to the killing of a woman and the injury of her family members, emphasizing that the state must fulfill its duty to ensure public safety.
