MK Stalin Criticizes Tamil Nadu Government After Raid on Former MinisterPreviousNext

DMK leader MK Stalin criticized the Tamil Nadu government following a Central Crime Branch raid on former minister Anbil Mahesh Poyyamozhi's residence linked to a private school fraud case. Stalin called the raid a political vendetta aimed at diverting attention from state issues such as power cuts, protests, law and order concerns, and shortages. He also noted the timing coincided with Chief Minister Vijay's trip to London. The government has not publicly responded to these allegations.
