Key Questions Answered
The Madurai Bench of the Chennai High Court severely reprimanded the TVK government over corruption allegations involving bribes ranging from Rs. 5 lakh to Rs. 30 lakh for government lawyer appointments. The court questioned whether individuals should secure legal positions through bribes and ordered the Directorate of Vigilance and Anti-Corruption to immediately investigate the complaints.
DMK Organizing Secretary R.S. Bharathi strongly criticized the administration, labeling TVK as a "thieving force" rather than an honest administration. He alleged that several crores of rupees were collected as bribes through government lawyer appointments to fund the TVK party and questioned why the DVAC had not yet registered a case despite audio evidence.
After a TVK-affiliated lawyer named Gnanasundari filed a case in the Chennai High Court alleging that between Rs. 5 lakh and Rs. 30 lakh was collected for government lawyer appointments, the party expelled her and attempted to cover up the case. Additionally, a complaint regarding this bribery was filed with the Directorate of Vigilance and Anti-Corruption by DMK Deputy Organizing Secretary Thayagam Kavi.
