A resident approached the TVK constituency MLA to raise concerns about water supply and garbage collection, and said a video shows him being beaten.
A resident of the TVK constituency met the area's Member of Legislative Assembly to highlight persistent problems with water supply and irregular garbage collection. The petitioner presented his grievances in person, seeking immediate remedial action from the elected representative.
The man further alleged that a video circulating on social media captures him being physically assaulted, claiming he was thrashed during the encounter. He urged the MLA to address the alleged violence and ensure accountability.
As of now, the MLA's office has not issued an official statement on the incident. Local officials have been asked to verify the authenticity of the video and investigate the alleged assault.
Water scarcity and waste‑management challenges have been recurring issues in the region, prompting repeated complaints from residents. The latest episode adds a layer of tension to an already strained relationship between the community and its representatives.
Authorities are expected to examine the footage and, if verified, take appropriate legal action while also reviewing the water and garbage service deficiencies raised by the complainant.
