Condoling the death of a four-year-old boy in Chennai due to dengue, AIADMK general secretary Edappadi K. Palaniswami on Sunday demanded the DMK government to take steps to control the spread of viral infection.
Rakshan, son of Ayyanar and Sonia in Pillayar Koil Street in Maduravoyal in Chennai, died of dengue, Mr. Palaniswami said in a social media post.
Mr. Palaniswami contended that the boy’s death was due to stagnation of rainwater in the area where the family has been living.
