According to the Chief Minister's Office, the committee will review existing security arrangements in prisons and suggest measures to further strengthen safety and surveillance mechanisms. Earlier, Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK) supremo M K Stalin on Monday slammed the TVK government for taking the southern state into reverse gear, claiming that Tamil Nadus growth story had stalled under C Joseph Vijay. Two pieces of news that emerged this morning Stalin posted on X.In terms of GST revenue growth, Tamil Naduunder the current administrationhas fallen below the national average; the states progress has effectively been buried, he added. He continued: Korean investments worth 1,614 crore, which were meant for Tamil Nadu, have instead gone to Andhra Pradesh due to the negligence of the current state government. Even @Guidance_TNthe very agency that once brought prestige to Tamil Nadu by successfully attracting investmentshas now been sacrificed to the egos of a few individuals within this administration. Stalin noted that One really ought to learn from these people how to shift into 'reverse gear' so rapidly across every single sector. Taking a dig at Vijay, the DMK chief said, As for our Chief Ministerwho seems to neither understand nor even be aware of what is actually going onhe has set off to the constituencies facing by-elections, merely to wave at crowds and put on a show. "Brace for tough times. Tamil Nadu is doomed under the TVK government," he concluded. (ANI)
