On Special Court Judgment

THE Special Court at Bangalore has convicted Jayalalitha, the chief minister of Tamilnadu and the general secretary of AIADMK in the case against her for acquiring disproportionate wealth. Based on the judgment, Jayalalitha should immediately step down from the post of chief minister of Tamilnadu. This judgment is a warning signal for those who indulge in corrupt activities and are dishonest in public life. CPI(M), Tamilnadu state secretariat is of the view that this judgment will strengthen the struggle against corruption. After pronouncement of this judgment, news coming from different parts of Tamilnadu indicate that anarchic riots and attack on public properties are taking place. The CPI(M) exhorts the state police to take strong measures to keep the law and order under control.
