Vijay accuses Tamil Nadu's DMK government of corruption

hindustantimes.com

Vijay, president of Tamizhaga Vetri Kazhagam (TVK), accused the ruling DMK government of corruption linked to ₹1,000 crore in irregularities found by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) during raids on the Tamil Nadu State Marketing Corporation (TASMAC). The BJP has supported Vijay's claims, despite their usual rivalry. Vijay criticized the DMK's management and stated that the party's corruption could fill an entire book. He is preparing for the 2026 assembly elections. In response, the DMK labeled Vijay as the BJP's "B team" and defended its minister Senthil Balaji, who is currently out on bail. The party awaits further developments regarding the ED's findings.
