The ruling party, DMK continues to be a “den for corruption”, alleged Tamil Nadu Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) president K Annamalai after Enforcement Directorate (ED) took possession of assets belonging to DMK MP A Raja.Annamalai further demanded an apology from the party for “constantly betraying people who voted for them”.
“DMK continues to be a den for corrupt. 11 DMK ministers have serious corruption allegations against them and the cases are pending in court and many have pending money laundering charges against them. DMK should bow down to the people of TN and apologise for constantly betraying the people who voted for them,” Annamalai said in a post on X.
He added, “In 2011 the Time Magazine listed A Raja in the ignominious club of privileged leaders who abused their power. Proud moment for DMK, as its founding leaders despite numerous corruption couldn’t manage to find their name on it.”
“The Enforcement Directorate has revealed today that A Raja also abused his power as the Environment Minister between 2004-2007 and received kickbacks in exchange for granting environmental clearances,” he said.
