BJP Tamil Nadu chief K. Annamalai accused the ruling DMK government of failing to act against mineral smuggling. He claimed that DMK members are responsible for the illegal activities, which he says have harmed the state's resources and increased construction material prices. Annamalai highlighted a recent incident where two trucks were seized for allegedly smuggling minerals to Kerala. He criticized the DMK for not addressing the issue and questioned when the government would take action against those involved in the smuggling. The BJP leader's comments come as the DMK prepares for the 2026 Assembly elections. Annamalai's statements suggest a growing political tension over the management of Tamil Nadu's mineral resources.
