During his visit, Vijay also criticized the opposition DMK for allegedly exploiting the tragedy for political gain. He accused the party of trying to capitalize on the incident, which has caused immense pain and suffering to the families of the victims.

The opposition DMK has been critical of the government's handling of the tragedy, accusing it of being slow to respond and inadequate in its support. The party has also called for a more comprehensive approach to addressing the needs of the families and to preventing similar incidents from occurring.

The High Court's evaluation of the government's job appointment policies is expected to provide more clarity on the government's approach to rehabilitation. The court's assessment will be crucial in determining the effectiveness of the government's efforts to support those affected by the tragedy.

In the meantime, the families of the victims continue to struggle to come to terms with their loss. The government's support and the Chief Minister's visit are seen as a gesture of solidarity and a commitment to providing relief and support.

The incident highlights the need for more to be done to prevent such tragedies from occurring in the future. The government and the opposition must work together to address the root causes of the tragedy and to provide support to those affected.

The significance of the Chief Minister's visit and the government's rehabilitation efforts cannot be overstated. It is a reminder that the government is committed to supporting those in need and to providing relief and support to those affected by tragedy.
