AIADMK General Secretary Edappadi K Palaniswami vowed to establish a drug-free Tamil Nadu if his party secures victory in the upcoming Assembly elections. Highlighting the state's deteriorating law and order, he asserted that under AIADMK, the sale of ganja and drug-induced crimes will be eradicated.

Palaniswami criticized DMK, alleging that women and police are unsafe under its rule. He accused the ruling party of failing to fulfill electoral promises and shutting down crucial healthcare services like 'Amma Mini Clinics'. Moreover, he condemned the DMK for not securing NEET exemptions for Tamil Nadu.

Portraying the DMK as a family-run enterprise rather than a political party, Palaniswami argued that the upcoming elections offer a pivotal choice between exploitation and genuine governance. He emphasized the need to end the DMK's dominance in the state.
