Chief Minister Edappadi K. Palaniswami, who did not even visit the victims of the police firing in Thoothukudi, should accept his failure and step down from his post, DMK working president M.K. Stalin said here on Wednesday.
“He has not even sent the local Ministers to the spot to ensure peace. The inefficient Chief Minister should resign,” he told reporters at the Chennai airport on his way to Thoothukudi.
Mr. Stalin claimed the police used modern firearms, including AK 47 rifles, to kill the protesters as if they were terrorists.
