Vijay govt's U-turn amid row over RTI exemption for law and order department; DMK takes ‘shameful’ swipe
The Tamil Nadu government revoked its order exempting the law and order department from the Right to Information (RTI) Act after backlash from allies like Congress and VCK. The original order aimed to classify the department as an 'Intelligence and Security Organisation,' limiting public access to critical information. This reversal highlights ongoing tensions within the state's ruling coalition.
