Protesting nurses say the Vijay government invited them for dialogue but later detained them, calling the move a betrayal.
A group of nurses who had been staging protests were summoned by the Vijay administration for talks, only to be taken into custody shortly thereafter. The nurses allege that the invitation was a pretext and that the subsequent arrests constitute a breach of trust.
The detained nurses have publicly accused the government of betrayal, asserting that the authorities used the promise of dialogue to suppress their dissent. They contend that the arrests undermine the right to peaceful protest and raise concerns about the handling of labour grievances.
Officials from the Vijay government have not provided a detailed response to the accusations, and the situation remains under observation as legal proceedings continue.
