Mounting a ferocious indictment of executive culpability behind the Chennai deluge, DMK treasurer M.K. Stalin condemned the AIADMK government's delayed discharge of water from the Chembarambakkam reservoir, declaring that the tragedy was not a mere administrative oversight, but a monumental crime perpetrated against the citizens of Tamil Nadu. Addressing the public, Stalin pointed out that official water level logs clearly demonstrated that despite continuous, heavy rainfall forecasts from the meteorological department, state authorities recklessly permitted the reservoir to fill up to its brim.
Stalin highlighted that bureaucratic officials delayed discharging water for two critical days, waiting helplessly for high-level political clearances from an inaccessible Chief Minister. When panic finally set in on the night of December first, authorities opened the sluice gates abruptly, releasing an unprecedented torrent of twenty-nine thousand cusecs into the Adyar river without sounding civil defense sirens or evacuating downstream neighborhoods. The resulting flash flood submerged thousands of homes, trapped sleeping families, and claimed hundreds of innocent lives. Stalin declared that this callous negligence constituted institutional homicide. He demanded that criminal cases be registered against the responsible ministers and bureaucrats, reiterating his call for a sitting High Court judge-led commission of inquiry.
