Palaniswami slams TVK-led regime for not taking steps to curb spread of dengue
AIADMK chief Palaniswami criticised the Tamil Nadu administration under Chief Minister Thiruvasagam K. (TVK) for failing to act promptly against a rising dengue outbreak. He noted the government’s rapid response to a university student’s death from scrub typhus, contrasting it with what he described as sluggish measures to contain the mosquito‑borne disease. He urged immediate vector control and public awareness initiatives.
