TN custodial death: BJP MLA sees DMK govt's gradual departure from ethical responsibilities
Vanathi was speaking at a model parliament event in Salem, which held to mark the 50th anniversary of the Emergency imposed by the then Prime Minister, Indira Gandhi, in 1975.
Model parliaments are being conducted nationwide by the BJP's women's and youth wings.
Reflecting on the Emergency period, Vanathi remarked that it was the Congress party that undermined the Indian Constitution. "Congress claims that the BJP and Prime Minister Narendra Modi do not uphold the Constitution.
If they fail to respond to these allegations, it will become evident that their claims hold merit," she said.
The BJP MLA criticized the govt for continuously asserting that the Centre had enforced Hindi. She questioned, "Has the central govt ever instructed anyone to learn Hindi?" She said there was no basis for such claims.
She accused the DMK of employing deceitful tactics in its campaign to incite public anger against the Centre .

She criticised the DMK govt for blaming the central government for not funding projects and schemes in the state. "When the Centre raises inquiries, the DMK govt claims that they cannot respond but only desires the funds to flow in," she said.
She refrained from commenting on a BJP-AIADMK coalition govt in Tamil Nadu, stating that such decisions would be made by the party's high command in New Delhi. "We must ensure that the DMK is ousted in the upcoming 2026 elections, and then we will determine our next steps," she said.

Barred in own constituency, Manipur Congress MP slams buffer zone enforcement
Congress MP from Inner Manipur, Angomcha Bimol Akoijam, has criticised what he called an "unconstitutional and imaginary buffer zone" enforced by security forces in parts of the conflict-hit at his residence in Imphal on Tuesday, Bimol raised serious concerns about being denied entry into a locality within his own constituency, alleging that such actions were violative of the fundamental rights guaranteed under the Indian Congress MP said he was stopped on June 29 by security forces while trying to visit Phougakchou-Ikhai Makha Leikai Keithel in Bishnupur district, an area that falls under his parliamentary constituency. "Stopping an Indian citizen - especially an elected Member of Parliament - from moving freely within his own constituency is a direct violation of Article 19 of the Indian Constitution," Bimol said, calling the move an example of growing authoritarianism and institutional bias. He alleged that security forces, particularly the 6 Assam Rifles, were actively enforcing a non-existent buffer zone that had originally been put in place in May 2023 to curb mob violence. According to him, the so-called buffer zone is now being used selectively to prevent Meitei individuals, including elected leaders, from entering certain areas while members of other communities are allowed free is not just about me being stopped. It's about covert, communal segregation being carried out under the guise of security. It's creating a dangerous precedent," Bimol said. Taking to social media, he highlighted the incident, arguing that such enforcement amounts to institutionalised discrimination between the Meitei and Kuki pointed to recent incidents of violence and obstruction against Meitei farmers, including an alleged attack in Imphal East on June 16 and another in Phubala on June 20, where farmers were reportedly prevented from accessing their land. Bimol claimed these actions reflect a coordinated attempt to intimidate Meiteis and deter them from farming on their own dismay, he stated that such barriers only serve to divide the people of Manipur and increase communal mistrust. "Manipur is not divided by communal ideology. The continued enforcement of this so-called buffer zone only deepens mistrust and weakens unity," he of now, there has been no official response from the security forces to the allegations made by the Congress MP.- EndsMust Watch
