Tamil Nadu Minister Rajmohan from the TVK has launched an attack on the SIR process, terming it a huge scam. Rajmohan stated that without SIR, the TVK would have won more seats and secured a larger majority in the Tamil Nadu Assembly, allowing more leaders to become ministers. The statement comes amid broader criticism of SIR by political parties in the state, including the DMK, which earlier attributed its electoral setback in Kolathur to the deletion of voters during the SIR exercise. Both TVK and DMK have raised concerns over the process impacting their seat tally.

00:00And we are now getting you details of Vijay Minister's big attack on SIR.
00:04Tamil Nadu Minister Raj Mohan has called SIR a huge scam.
00:08Raj Mohan has said that we would have won more had the seats, had it not been for SIR.
00:14Minister Raj Mohan who said that without SIR we would have certainly won more seats.
00:19SIR is a huge scam is what the TVK Minister Raj Mohan has said.
00:23He said that if it were not for SIR we would have won with an even larger majority.
00:30Maybe the TVK has emerged as a distinct majority.
00:34If not for SIR many more Raj Mohans would have become ministers and many more women like Tamil Nadu Sai
00:41Akka would have come to politics.
00:44SIR is just a huge scam.
00:50You should have won the whole process.
00:53As you said we would have won every panel.
00:55You should have won for SIR and the whole process.
00:58You should have won the day one.
01:00You should be lost and will not be broken.
01:04You should have won and they have won't be broken.
01:05You should have won and this is a special intensive revision.
01:10It will be done in advance.
01:12We're starting across to Anaka Keshav joining us on the broadcast.
01:15Anaka, this remark coming at a time when the whole matter of CEC Gyanesh Kumar
01:20has already caught everyone's attention and given how the opposition is moving towards it,
01:26Raj Mohan now saying that had it not been for SIR, TBK would have won more seats.
01:35Well, you know, in fact, Svesha, the SIR is also an issue that the opposition party here,
01:40the DMK has picked up.
01:41In fact, even when M.K. Stalin lost his election from his Kulatur constituency,
01:46a very, very stronghold of DMK,
01:48the one main reason which the DMK gave was because of the SIR process
01:52that a huge chunk of voters were unfairly deleted from Kulatur constituency
01:57and that's what really led to V.S. Babu from TBK winning his election from Kulatur
02:01and that's why M.K. Stalin lost is what DMK said.
02:04And now the TBK has also picked the same issue.
02:06Remember, the TBK at this point is in minority.
02:10They have only 108 MLAs and they formed a government really with the support of ally parties
02:16like the likes of Congress and VCK and with the support of left parties.
02:20And therefore, that's Minister Raj Mohan there saying that if not for SIR,
02:26the TBK would have won a lot more seats.
02:28We would have formed a government in majority is the sort of statement that we are hearing from Raj Mohan.
02:34Many other parties who oppose BJP, the likes of BMK, the likes of TVK,
02:39both these parties in Tamil Nadu have picked this issue up by saying that SIR is the one reason
02:45why we have fallen short of our target number of votes and why we have lost many MLAs
02:51is what both these parties are saying now.
