Former chief minister V Narayanasamy of the Congress party has said the Puducherry government will collapse before its five-year term ends.

He made the claim at a press conference on Thursday.

He alleged that some ministers are conspiring to destabilise the government. He did not name them yet.

He said he would reveal their names at an appropriate time.

The government is an alliance of AINRC and BJP, led by Chief Minister N Rangasamy.

Narayanasamy said this alliance is confused and unstable.

He also said a cold war between the lieutenant governor and the chief minister has stalled files and welfare schemes.

He added that no new schemes were announced even six months after the government took office.

### Key points

- Narayanasamy says the government will fall before its five-year term ends.
- Home Minister A Namassivayam calls this a daydream and says the alliance is strong.
- Police will finalise new law and order steps on November 18.
- Recruitment of 1,007 police constables will begin shortly.

## Why is this political dispute important?

The Home Minister, A Namassivayam, rejected the charge. He said the government would complete its full five-year term.

He called Narayanasamy's claim a "daydream".

Namassivayam said Narayanasamy was making such allegations because he wished to see the government fall.

He also said differences over the Speaker post should be decided under the rules.

## What is being done about crime and murders?

Narayanasamy said Puducherry had become a "murder city", and people were living in fear.

He also alleged rising ganja use, bribery and police corruption.

Namassivayam said most recent murders were linked to old enmity.

He said the crime rate was lower than in several other states. Still, he accepted that recent incidents needed attention.

Night patrols will be intensified. Two Senior Superintendents of Police will oversee different parts of the territory.

History-sheeters will be closely watched, and strict action will be taken against public drinking.

## What happens next for police and jobs?

Fresh short-term and long-term measures will be finalised on November 18.

This will be done with Director General of Police Shalini Singh, who is expected to return by then.

Recruitment of 1,007 police constables for the India Reserve Battalion will begin shortly.

Another 200 Home Guards will also be recruited.

Narayanasamy also asked the government to give a five-year age relaxation for government jobs.

He said the government had promised 10,000 jobs but provided far fewer.
