Justice Oka said environmental degradation had a direct nexus with the social justice guaranteed to citizens by the Constitution.

In a statement that drew sharp parallels between the chief minister and historical dictators, Anbumani alleged that DMKs opposition to the Constitution Amendment Bill stems from a deep rooted anti-women and anti-social justice mindset.

While campaigning for DMK alliance candidates in Erode, Salem and Namakkal districts, Udhayanidhi said the party had helped defeat the Bill and resisted attempts to reduce the strength of Tamil Nadu in parliament.

Election officials in Namakkal district intercepted a large cardboard box containing 100 new saris, reportedly intended for voter distribution. The seizure occurred in Tiruchengodu after a tip-off, leading to DMK members abandoning the goods and fleeing. Police have registered a case against a local DMK ward member as investigations continue into the alleged gift distribution.

The court then imposed Rs 1 lakh cost on a petitioner, Jesudass Cornelius, who wanted a direction to the Tiruvallur district collector to maintain the land earmarked for public purposes in Veeraraghavan village, Thiruverkadu, as a park and playground. The judge imposed the cost, terming the petition as one filed with mala fide intent to trigger communal tension.

The campaign was held at Jawahar Street in Bharathi Nagar, located next to the partys election office.

The suit has been posted for hearing on April 22.

Ramadoss fainted during a campaign in Salem on Sunday (April 12) and was admitted to Apollo Hospitals. He was discharged on Thursday.

Udhayanidhi made this attack on former chief minister and AIADMK leader Edappadi K Palaniswami while campaigning for DMK candidate K V K Sabari Karthikeyan in Kinathukadavu constituency in Coimbatore.

Parliament considers crucial delimitation bills, raising concerns for democratic legitimacy and India's federal balance. These proposals could alter political power distribution significantly. The article argues for careful deliberation and public consultation before any constitutional changes are enacted. Statesmanship demands scrutiny, not speed, to ensure fairness and preserve the Union's integrity.
