Chennai, March 15 -- BJP National Spokesperson CR Kesavan on Sunday launched a sharp attack on the DMK-led Tamil Nadu government, accusing Chief Minister MK Stalin of neglecting a rising tide of violence against women.

Speaking to ANI, Kesavan compared the state administration to the infamous Roman emperor, stating, "The utterly incompetent, inconsiderate and insensitive DMK Govt, led by MK Stalin, can be best described as a modern-day Nero. Like how Nero was merrily playing the fiddle when Rome was burning. When brutal sexual violence and assaults are being committed against women in Tamil Nadu in broad daylight, the DMK Govt and CM MK Stalin, who is also the Home Minister, are busy making reels and have failed to stop these crimes."
