Chennai, 16 June (H.S.): Residents of Tiruchirappalli have taken to social media to demand a ban on political meetings and rallies in the city, citing the recent VCK rally that brought traffic to a standstill. The rally, which was held last week, caused significant disruptions to daily life, with commuters facing long delays and inconvenience.

The residents are frustrated with the lack of consideration shown by political parties, which they feel prioritize their events over the needs of the general public. Many have expressed their exasperation on social media platforms, calling for the authorities to take action and impose restrictions on such events.

The demand for a ban on political meetings has sparked a debate, with some arguing that it would infringe upon the fundamental right to freedom of speech and assembly. However, residents argue that the right to free movement and access to essential services should also be protected.

The issue has become a contentious topic in the city, with many awaiting the authorities' response to the residents' demands.
