00:00There was another issue that came up in that particular discussion.
00:02The issue of Anbhil Mahesh's arrest.
00:06So the political battle in Tamil Nadu intensifying.
00:09A corruption case against Anbhil Mahesh, triggering a fresh DMK versus TVK face-off.
00:14After he was denied anticipatory bail by the Madras High Court, he was taken into custody, arrested.
00:20What is the allegation against him?
00:21That there was 100 crore kickbacks because he, as education minister, promised recognition to several private schools on behalf of
00:29the government.
00:30There was a reference to the word party fund as well in the High Court.
00:34The DMK, of course, has called all of this a political conspiracy.
00:36The TVK is saying that several of the senior DMK leaders are finally paying the price for their corruption.
00:47Another day, another political storm in Tamil Nadu.
00:51Former Tamil Nadu minister Anbhil Mahesh was arrested by the Chennai Central Crime Branch on Monday in an alleged 100
00:59crore rupees corruption case.
01:02Mahesh is also accused of collecting money from private schools by promising government recognition and approvals.
01:08The Madras High Court has rejected the bail petition, post which, within hours, Anbhil Mahesh has been arrested and has
01:15been brought in to the Chennai City Police Commissioner's office.
01:18And here, what DMK claims is that no lawyer has been allowed to enter the place.
01:22They don't even know where Anbhil Mahesh is.
01:24And the families were not informed about this.
01:26And they are calling it as nothing but political vendetta.
01:30Mahesh has rejected the allegations.
01:50The former minister's arrest has now set off a political slugfest, with the DMK and TVK trading charges.
02:01K.R. Namalai, who heads We The Leaders Forum, welcomed the arrest, accusing the DMK of running away from the
02:09truth.
02:09State Minister Nirmal Kumar claimed the scam was much bigger.
02:36The DMK, however, has dismissed the arrest as political vendetta.
02:41K.R. Namalai, it's a political vendetta.
02:50It's clearly a political vendetta.
02:51They want to score this kind of a thing.
02:54They want to score against our DMK.
02:56It's the presence of a corruption political party.
02:58And it never achieved.
03:00K.R. Namalai, you're not going to do it.
03:02The one has moved beyond political statements on social media.
03:06A video of a DMK supporter waving the party flag has gone by.
03:11Apparently, recorded during Mahesh's arrest, the supporter made the remark seemingly deemed a political vendetta.
03:18suggesting the silhouette situation could act the right or judo at Vijay group and the left.
03:24Are you crazy, damn?
03:25I couldn't.
03:25I put a joke.
03:27Are you crazy, damn?
03:27What do I mean?
03:28So I'm crazy
03:28The one who left meaght coach will have.
