Wed Nov 06 10:30:11 UTC 2024: ## AIADMK Leader Blasts DMK Government for “Failure” in Tamil Nadu

**Chennai, November 6, 2024:** The AIADMK has launched a scathing attack on the ruling DMK government in Tamil Nadu, accusing it of neglecting critical issues while focusing on self-promotion.

Speaking to reporters after a meeting of district secretaries, AIADMK’s organization secretary and former Fisheries Minister, D. Jayakumar, claimed the DMK government has failed to address key issues like inflation, deteriorating law and order, and attacks on Dalits. He criticized the government for prioritizing self-promotion and unveiling statues of former Chief Minister M. Karunanidhi over addressing these issues.

Jayakumar also asserted that the AIADMK general secretary, Edappadi K. Palaniswami, had advised party functionaries to highlight the DMK government’s “failure” in their public interactions.

Addressing the compatibility of “Dravidam” and Tamil nationalism, the former Minister maintained that they are inseparable. He also refuted the Naam Tamilar Katch’s (NTK) founder Seeman’s comments on the conviction of former Chief Minister Jayalalithaa in a disproportionate assets case, stating that she was acquitted at the time of her death.

Jayakumar reminded that the Supreme Court had ruled that the corruption case against Jayalalithaa was abated due to her demise and suggested that Seeman consult legal experts before making such statements.
