When Kathiravan, younger brother of DMK councillor Loku, along with panchayat officials, took a JCB vehicle to clear the long-standing sewage canal at Pongalur area under Avinasipalayam police station limits in Tirupur district, BJP members started to allegedly accuse of trying to kill them

The Avinasipalayam police have registered a case against two DMK workers and panchayat officials on the basis of a complaint lodged by Selvakumar's relatives and BJP workers alleging that they tried to kill a BJP functionary from the same locality, Selvakumar, who was accused of attempting to kill him by hoisting a JCB.

In this situation, at the instigation of the BJP, a false case is being filed against the DMK leaders. In Pongalur area, an individual has encroached upon and constructed a sewage canal. On the basis of a complaint filed by the public under the chief minister's special cell that this was causing inconvenience to them, the panchayat administration went to clear the drain on behalf of the panchayat administration. "With political motives, BJP functionary Selvakumar got into an argument and took a video and posted it on social media.

A case has also been registered against the DMK members, the zonal deputy block officer and the panchayat secretary, who were not present on the spot, on the instigation of the BJP.



The DMK, led by Pongalur panchayat president Sathya, has submitted a petition to the district superintendent of police's office demanding that it be withdrawn.
