I initially thought about not bringing up this issue here, but a person has been exploiting Tamil Nadu\u2019s young girls and children for years. Although the case surfaced during the previous DMK tenure, the matter and its history were quietly buried. What kind of a deal was struck, sir? The entire state of Tamil Nadu is questioning this,&#8221; Vijay said while campaigning for TVK candidate K Maragatham in Madurantakam assembly constituency where a byelection will be held on Oct 6.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"7\"\/>Vijay turned the sensitive issue into a powerful campaign tool. He said, &#8220;Stalin sir (DMK chief MK Stalin), open your mouth and speak up. Others alongside you are also keeping quiet. Is there an unspoken understanding or collusion keeping you from speaking out on this issue?&#8221;<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"10\"\/>He went on to criticize the DMK and its allies for posing as defenders of women&#8217;s rights. &#8220;We were the ones who imprisoned that person,&#8221; he stated.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"13\"\/>&#8220;If you cannot step forward and address the pain and anguish of these young children, what kind of politics have you been practicing all these years? The people must teach the DMK and its allies a fitting lesson in the upcoming bypoll,&#8221; Vijay added.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"15\"\/>READ ALSO: <a href=\"google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/city\/chennai\/madurantakam-bypoll-tamil-nadu-cm-targets-dmk-says-dont-touch-this-vijay-you-will-regret-it\/articleshow\/134483296.cms&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1790421375955000&amp;usg=AOvVaw32nE3b718fXXLOon0soRFB\" styleobj=\"[object Object]\" class=\"\" commonstate=\"[object Object]\" frmappuse=\"1\">&#8216;Don\u2019t touch this Vijay, you will regret it&#8217;<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/city\/chennai\/veeramani-child-rape-case-vijay-slams-previous-dmk-govts-failure-to-take-action-asks-what-kind-of-a-deal-was-struck-sir\/articleshow\/134485647.cms\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Vijay campaigning for TVK candidate K Maragatham in Madurantakam assembly constituency on Friday.
