Flaying the DMK government for detaining seven farmers under the Goondas Act after they protested against land acquisition by SIPCOT in Tiruvannamalai, Bharatiya Janata Party State president K. Annamalai on Friday alleged that Tamil Nadu had not witnessed such “worst rule” in its history.
People who had looted public money were roaming freely and no legal action had been initiated against them by the DMK government, Mr. Annamalai said while speaking at Lalgudi in Tiruchi district as part of his ‘En Mann and En Makkal’ yatra.
The farmers had been protesting against the land acquisition for 125 days and seven of them who spearheaded the protests were detained under the Goondas Act, Mr. Annamalai said, adding that his party would resort to a series of protests against this action.
