The Statesman Delhi|January 01, 2025
Continuing to keep the heat on the DMK government of MK Stalin over the sexual assault of a girl student in the prestigious Anna University, in the heart of Chennai, the BJP on Tuesday announced a padayatra from Madurai to press for justice for the victim.

"Condemning the atrocity meted out to the girl student and the DMK government attempting to prevent the full truth from coming out because the offender belongs to the DMK, the BJP Mahila Morcha will launch a padayatra from Madurai to Chennai on January 3," party state president K Annamalai said in a post on 'X'. The yatra would be led by state BJP mahila morcha President Umarathi and on its conclusion, a memorandum will be submitted to the Governor, he added.

In front of his house last week to condemn the incident and deciding not to wear footwear till the DMK is ousted from power has only invited ridicule, flooding social media with memes.

Earlier on Monday, close on the heels of actor and Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK) President Vijay meeting Governor RN Ravi, Annamalai arrived at the Raj Bhavan, urging him to ensure a fair and impartial investigation into the sexual assault case.
