Tamil Nadu: Tamil Nadu Minister V Senthil Balaji on Friday following the Enforcement Directorate (ED) raids on Tamil Nadu State Marketing Corporation Limited (TASMAC) and liquor-supplying companies in Tamil Nadu, denies the charges and stated that the state government would face this legally.
Addressing media V Senthil Balaji said, “ED have alleged Rs 1000 crores corruption without any basis. Before ED one person made an accusation Rs 1000 crores scam then ED also says same in their statement. People are aware that there are thousands of meanings behind this. Government will face the ED searches on TASMAC legally.”
“Everything is transparent as far as TASMAC is concerned. As far as purchase is concerned it would be done calculating average of last three months of purchase brand. By taking the average of the last three years and last month’s purchase, TASMAC will give purchase orders to them. So, we have not shown any discount to anyone on giving purchase orders. Everything is transparent. There is no room for any malpractices in TASMAC and the government will face ED searches legally,” he added.
The Minister claimed that there had been no policy changes in TASMAC functioning.
People have got faith in Tamil Nadu CM M K Stalin. TASMAC is being administered by Tamil Nadu Government. It is not a private enterprise. Have we taken any new policy decision on TASMAC. It is functioning with same old policy
The Bharatiya Janata Party on Friday accused Tamil Nadu CM MK Stalin of spreading baseless rumours about the three-language policy and other issues to divert attention from ongoing Enforcement Directorate (ED) raids on TASMAC and liquor-supplying companies in Tamil Nadu.
BJP state Chief K Annamalai said, “The ED has uncovered documents from the distilleries linked to the generation of unaccounted cash of Rs1000 Crores, which were paid as kickbacks. DMK has been fleecing common people to fill their party’s coffers by rigging the system, and TN CM is duty-bound to answer the people who received these kickbacks. He should also ask himself if he has the moral right to continue as the CM of TN. “
