SG Suryah Tamil Nadu BJP Secretary Arrested Over Tweet Under These IPC Sections

On the night between Friday and Saturday, the Madurai police detained SG Suryah, the state secretary of the Tamil Nadu BJP, for a tweet in which he criticised Su Venkatesan, a member of the CPI(M), on a social issue.

In the aforementioned Twitter post, Suryah accused Viswanathan, a councillor for the Communist Party of India (Marxist), of forcing a sanitation worker to clean a sewer that was clogged with human waste, which led to the worker’s death from allergies.

SG Suryah’s tweet

The tweet, addressed to CPI (M) Madurai MP Su Venkatesan, and written in Tamil, read, “Sanitation worker’s life lost by communist councilor. Madurai MP S.Venkatesan who keeps fake silence! Your fake politics of separatism stinks worse than that cesspool. Find a way to live as a human being, mate!”

Suryah was arrested under sections 153(a), 505 (1)(b), 505 (1)(c) of IPC and 66(d) IT Act, and is currently being taken to the magistrate for remand.

BJP Vice President: BJP will not tolerate this

According to ANI, Tamil Nadu BJP vice president Narayanan Thirupathy said, “Nothing defamatory. In fact, it is a false complaint by Venkatesan. It is irresponsible on the part of the MP to have given a false complaint…The Govt is very clear to intimidate BJP workers, as told by CM Stalin…BJP will not tolerate this.”

What did CT Ravi say?

Taking to twitter BJP National General Secretary CT Ravi on the arrest of Tamil Nadu BJP state secretary SG Surya wrote, “I strongly condemn the arrest of SG Suryah by Tamil Nadu police for raising questions against the incompetent DMK government.
If CM MK Stalin thinks that he can put down the true voice of Tamil Makkal through such arrests, then he should come out of his good for nothing Dravidian Model.”

SG Suryah was arrested a day after DMK’s state Minister V Senthil Balaji was arrested by ED in a job racket scandal case during his term as a transport minister under the 2011-16 AIADMK government.
