The arrest of two TVK party affiliates, Balasubramaniam and Jeyapal, on accusations of sexually assaulting a woman under the guise of job offers, has ignited significant political controversy. In response, the party has moved to suspend the accused.

A TVK functionary was expelled after allegedly assaulting an excavator operator during a demolition site dispute near Tambaram.

BJP leader Nainar Nagenthran claims TVK members are increasingly linked to serious crimes, urging the Chief Minister to ensure public safety.
