Corruption Case Against AIADMK Leader; Party Dubs It "Vendetta"
NDTV
The Directorate of Vigilance and Anti-Corruption conducted searches in 52 premises across Tamil Nadu and questioned Mr Velumani at the MLA quarters in Chennai.
The Directorate of Vigilance and Anti-Corruption on Tuesday registered a case against former minister SP Velumani for allegedly abusing his official position and allotting tenders. He is the second AIADMK leader to face action after the DMK assumed office in May. While the anti-graft agency conducted searches in 52 premises across Tamil Nadu and questioned Mr Velumani, a Coimbatore-based AIADMK strongman, the main opposition party condemned the action. Last month, similar action was taken against MR Vijayabaskar, another AIADMK leader and former minister who hailed from Karur. The AIADMK said it is always ready to face the "false cases" against its leaders legally and politically.
The prime minister said the Maharashtra election also shows that only one Constitution will work in India and that was given to the people of the country by B R Ambedkar.
The Prime Minister said the Congress' outsized interest in its own welfare is a "threat to democracy".
