Joseph Vijay's responsiveness to the deteriorating law and order situation in Tamil Nadu on November 11, 2026. In a post on his social media, Dhinakaran pointed out three reported murders in Chennai while the Chief Minister was meeting to review the situation and police had detained several history-sheeters. He asked, \"What would be the explanation of a Minister, who compared the incidence of crime on Deepavali day this year with that of previous years?\" Dhinakaran urged Vijay to take appropriate measures to maintain law and order.",
