Stalin asks officials to monitor those making vicious remarks on caste, religion in social media

Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M.K. Stalin on Tuesday chaired a meeting in the Secretariat and reviewed the law and order situation across the State. During the meeting, he instructed senior officers to monitor miscreants in the social media who are spreading vicious remarks on caste and religion.

Pointing to an increase in the number of those deliberately spreading hatred in the social media, Mr. Stalin instructed officials to monitor such elements, who, he said, were the main reason behind disturbing the social peace. “Innocents would be affected because of these miscreants. These elements would sit comfortably and sow such poisonous remarks but would escape. These elements should be monitored and action should be taken against them.”
