Amid the outrage over the alleged sexual assault of an engineering student at Anna University, actor-turned-politician and TVK chief Vijay met Tamil Nadu Governor R N Ravi on Monday, demanding that measures be taken immediately to ensure the safety of women, a move welcomed by state BJP chief K Annamalai.
The principal opposition party AIADMK intensified its protest over the incident, accusing the ruling DMK of negligence and attempting to suppress dissent.
On Monday, TVK president Vijay submitted a memorandum to Governor Ravi and sought his intervention to address what he described as “a severely deteriorating law and order situation” in the state.

“We met the Governor to address the safety of women and the law and order situation,” said TVK general secretary N Anand in a statement. Vijay’s petition also highlighted the need for federal funds to assist those affected by Cyclone Fengal

Outspoken about crimes against women, the actor-politician has even penned a letter addressing the state’s women and expressed his anguish over “mass atrocities” against them. “As your brother, I feel inexplicable pain.

Annamalai welcomed “brother” Vijay’s decision to meet the Governor and said on X, “Brother Vijay has taken a firm stand for women’s safety
