Tamil Nadu's Fading Civility: A Cautionary Tale for India's Politics The recent spat between Tamil Nadu Chief Minister C Joseph Vijay and BJP State President Nainar Nagenthran is a disturbing symptom of the deepening chasm in Indian politics.
On Saturday, Nagenthran made a personal remark against Vijay, recalling the latter's comment about his father being missing, which had sparked controversy earlier.
The reaction from both sides has been predictable – accusations of uncivilized behavior and charges of misrepresentation – but what's striking is the increasing willingness to push boundaries and test limits.
