Know what is the matter
The Madurai police arrested SG Surya, state secretary of the Tamil Nadu BJP, on the intervening night of Friday and Saturday for a tweet. Police sources had said that this action was taken on the basis of a complaint made by the Communist Party of India-Marxist (CPI-M) regarding a post issued by BJP state secretary Surya on his social media account. In a Twitter post, Surya accused Councilor Vishwanathan of forcing a sanitation worker to clean a drain filled with sewage, resulting in the worker’s death due to an allergic reaction. In his address to CPI(M) Madurai MP Su Venkatesan, he wrote that the life of a sweeper was taken by a Communist councillor. Madurai MP S Venkatesan who is keeping fake silence! Your fake politics of separatism stinks worse than that drain. Find a way to live as a man, friend! The BJP leader has been arrested for this.

Rajnath Singh’s target on Stalin
Defense Minister Rajnath Singh said that today CM Stalin is opposing the arrest of Minister Senthil Balaji in the corruption case. But, when Senthil Balaji was in AIADMK, Blitz Stalin called him corrupt and demanded his immediate arrest. This duplicity of character is unacceptable. Along with this, he said that the way CM Stalin ordered the arrest of BJP leader SG Surya over a tweet, is completely anti-constitutional and anti-democratic. By doing this, they are putting democracy in danger.
