The ruling allies of the DMK, including Congress, VCK and CPI-M, together with activists working for the rise of the planned caste/tribes, renewed their call to adopt exclusive legislation to solve murders induced by a caste, which are passed on as “honor” crimes. Against the background of Kavin Selvaganesh, a young engineer from Tirunevel, who works in a leading IT company that belonged to the planned caste, they questioned the position of the main Minister MK Stalin in a assembly in which a special law is not required.
On Tuesday, the chairman of the Congress Committee Tamil Nadu K. Selvaperunthagai said on Tuesday that he did not share the opinion of the main minister. “A separate law must be adopted against” crimes related to a tribute “. The main minister said in the assembly that he would use an iron hand to end such murders and there is no need for a separate law … but we agree with this violence. In several other countries it is necessary to go through.
Viduthalai Chiruthaigal Katchi leader Thol. Thirumavalavan, who ranked as a “ideological ally” DMK in the “fight against Sanathan Dharma”, said in his statement that he is afraid to learn about violence and murders that continue “failed” in the districts of Tirunevel and Thuothuku. He emphasized his repeated requirements for the creation of a news unit within the police forces that would deal with crimes related to the caste, the state government ignored.
“The Indian Legal Commission will already create a bill that has not adopted for several years,” he said. His Secretary General of the party D. Ravikumar said that the Supreme Court itself on the Shakti Vahini vs Union of India (2018) was burning for such legislation.
“SC, while ordered the Union’s government to enact law, stated what state governments should do so for now. The instructions have been framed and sent to all main secretaries of the state. SC gave the law to the law of the Union.
On Tuesday, the State Secretary of CPI (m) Phanmugam demanded the arrest of the parents of the sub-inspector of the alleged murderer Surjithe. “The ongoing amount of violence repeats the need for an independent law and undermines the state government’s argument that existing criminal laws are sufficient to resolve these crimes,” he said.
A. Kathir of Evidence, an organization for civil rights, said: “If the current criminal laws were sufficient, then why do we need SC/ST (prevention of atrocities) an act? Why do we need a separate law against women’s harassment?
