Yes officers still serve and it should be a reminder that incompetency will not be tolerated. Your outdated argument carries no weight. He is accountable for the department now. The allegation is placed on to a period not under his watch. Judge him on what happens now, not on what happened before he was responsible.
@sumanthraman Unfortunately for many perhaps you included, that so-called ‘fans’ are becoming the majority. I quote my own post

There is a unique feeling when you land at your home airport after a long trip abroad. Or when you cross back into your own state after travelling elsewhere. Or when you finally return to your hometown, and ultimately, your own home. It is a quiet sense of comfort, familiarity and belonging. A feeling that says, “I’m back.”
That is the feeling many people have with the current TVK government. It is not about agreeing with every decision. It is the feeling that this is our government, and that it is governing with confidence on behalf of the people who placed it there.
Where is this table from?
It doesn’t match the latest official UDISE+ 2024-25 data released by the Ministry of Education.
According to that (and independent analyses like the AIRI-SE Infrastructure Index), Tamil Nadu ranks around 8th on a composite of electricity, computers, and internet, not 1st, with internet connectivity at ~85%, not 99%.
Infrastructure metrics are useful, but they’re only one piece. The more important question is pupil attainment, actual learning outcomes in reading, maths, and foundational skills.
Governments change, and so do the names of schemes. That, by itself, is neither right nor wrong. I’m not suggesting DMK did anything wrong, but you seem to be insinuating otherwise. You’re entitled to your opinion, of course.
But clinging to such a frivolous point serves little purpose. The sarcasm in the original post that started this thread is, in my view, entirely justified.
@RamyaDpalani You first: Let’s start by answering why these names were changed:
- Thalikku Than gam Thittam → Pudhumai Penn Thittam
- Amma Mini Clinics → Makkalai Thedi Maruthuvam
- Amma Two-Wheeler Scheme → Scrapped (Vidiyal Payanam)
High-profile exits at Guidance TN?
Before calling it “ high-profile exits” we should wait for actual evidence. No names, no verifiable list, no official confirmation, just “according to sources.”
Staff churn after a new government takes over is completely normal. Transitions always bring uncertainty and some exits.
Sensationalising unverified claims might grab attention, but it undermines credibility. When it comes to Industries ministry I see pattern of bias kicking in your posts.
The people of Tamil Nadu care little for the hopes, fears or narratives that others project onto them. They understand their own priorities far better than self-appointed intellectuals who claim to know what’s best for them.
The old left-versus-right debate is losing its grip, not just in Tamil Nadu but across the world. People are increasingly unwilling to tolerate problems that affect their daily lives simply because they are wrapped in ideological labels.
Ideologies must evolve with people’s realities, not remain trapped in the glory of the past.
You seem to know more about me than I do myself, just as you seem to know everything happening in the world. Guesses dressed up as facts don’t become facts.
I write my own posts.
All I said was this: don’t pick corruption as your line of attack because that’s a battle you’re bound to lose. Instead of addressing that, you’ve resorted to personal attacks and deflection.
I think that says enough. People can read this and make their own judgment.
You are so eager to respond that you have completely missed the point. Nobody said corruption should be tackled instead of women’s safety, social justice, state rights, rape or murder. A government is expected to address all of them. This isn’t a pissing contest where one issue has to replace another.
Your entire argument is still about people, not proof of wrongdoing. Selling lottery tickets legally is not a crime. If you have evidence of an actual offence, present it. Repeating labels isn’t evidence. The tax allegation against Vijay is also a misrepresentation of the facts; you should read the case before repeating talking points.
What people in Tamil Nadu are fed up with is systemic corruption that became so pervasive under the Dravidian parties that many simply accepted it as normal. That is the disgust people are talking about. The mandate today is to dismantle those avenues of corruption and investigate every credible allegation, irrespective of who is involved, whether they are in TVK or outside it.
You keep obsessing over faces. Voters care about actions. If TVK shields corruption, people will punish it. If it investigates and prosecutes corruption without fear or favour, people will reward it. That’s how democracy works. Change is happening on the ground whether you choose to acknowledge it or not.
Your assessment of Gaza is very superficial. Yes, the two situations are different. But the claim that one is a “just cause” while the other is simply “wanton aggression” is neither accurate nor intellectually defensible.
History is rarely that binary. The Israel-Palestine conflict spans decades of disputed territory, occupation, security concerns, failed peace processes, displacement, terrorism, military operations and competing claims to self-determination. Reducing Gaza to “they had autonomy and chose rockets” strips away almost every relevant piece of context.
Condemning Hamas for targeting civilians is entirely justified. Equally, recognising the humanitarian suffering of Palestinian civilians and the unresolved political questions is not an endorsement of Hamas.
You don’t have to equate Eelam and Palestine to acknowledge that both are rooted in far deeper historical and political realities than the caricature you’ve presented. Serious discussions deserve nuance, not simplistic good-versus-bad narratives.

@DrSharmila15 Funny how even a medical doctor has suddenly become a legal expert. Hindsight has a remarkable talent for turning everyone into an authority after the event, when the risks are gone and the outcome is already known.
