Whether Karunanidhi
and Kanimozhi, had misappropriated 200 crore in World Classical Tamil Conference.
The Madras high court has ordered a
vigilance probe into a complaint that former chief minister M Karunanidhi had
misappropriated funds meant for the World classical
Tamil conference held in Coimbatore in June 2010. Justice R Mala, before whom
the petition filed by advocate B Ramesh Babu came up for hearing on Monday16-9-2013,
said an expeditious inquiry should be conducted into
the allegation and that a case should be registered if commission of any
cognizable offence was made out.
According to Ramesh Babu, while the
then chief minister Karunanidhi claimed that 380 crore was spent on the conference,
a later press release claimed 301 crore had been spent. Information obtained
under the RTI Act showed only 151.22 crore had been spent. Another RTI plea
revealed that 262.63 crore was spent on the meet. Ramesh Babu claimed that
Karunanidhi and his associates, including his daughter Kanimozhi, had
misappropriated more than 200 crore.
State public prosecutor S Shanmugavelayutham said that an inquiry has begun.
We can get the true pictures only after Vigilance enquiry. Let
us wait.
