PMK president Anbumani Ramadoss on Sunday alleged that Tamil Nadu is grappling with drug proliferation, and condemned the attack on public servants by drug peddlers and addicts. He urged the State government to take stringent measures to prevent the availability of drugs.
In a statement, the PMK president said a policeman was attacked by a drug peddler, Umapathy, and his friend, in Kannagi Nagar, Chennai, when the former tried to arrest them. The policeman has been admitted to hospital.
Umapathy is a full-time drug peddler and history-sheeter, he said.
