Chennai: Electricity Minister V Senthilbalaji has warned BJP State president K Annamalai of legal action if he failed to provide proof for the charges raised by him over the awarding of the contract for the Ennore Expansion Supercritical Thermal Power Station.

Earlier, Annamalai told reporters that the DMK government has favoured the BGR which was awarded the 660 MW Ennore Expansion project by reducing the deposit to three per cent from 10 per cent.

Meanwhile, Congress MP from Virudhunagar, Manickam Tagore accused Annamalai, without taking his name, of trying to communalise the recent death of minors in Madurai, Thanjavur.

He slammed IPS officer-turned-politician Annamalai for indulging in ‘dead body’ politics and accused him of creating nuisance in society.
