The BJP's Tamil Nadu State Secretary, Vinoj P Selvam, has criticized Chief Minister Vijay following reports of over Rs 22 crore being siphoned from government bank accounts. The fraud was reportedly discovered in three Rural Development Department accounts, according to a Dinamalar report published on November 9. Selvam accused the TVK government of administrative negligence and questioned how cybercriminals were able to transfer crores without triggering any security alarms. He also accused CM Vijay's social media supporters of running the state government, comparing it to an actor's fan club. The Dinamalar report suggested that a Nigerian cybercrime gang might be involved in the case. The fraudulent amounts were reportedly taken from Mandapam Panchayat Union in Ramanathapuram district (Rs 14 crore), Nagapattinam district (Rs 3.10 crore), and Tambaram, Chengalpattu district (Rs 5 crore). These funds were allocated for constructing rural health and wellness centers under the 15th Finance Commission grants. The Chennai Cyber Crime Police are currently investigating the case. Tamil Nadu demands transparency, strong institutions, and a government capable of safeguarding public funds, Selvam concluded.
