3-Year Jail For Senior Tamil Nadu Minister In Corruption Case

21-Dec-2023 393

Chennai: Tamil Nadu minister K Pondmudy was on Thursday awarded three years in jail in a corruption case. The Madras High Court had set aside a trial court order two days ago to convict the DMK leader and his wife in a ₹ 1.75-crore disproportionate assets case.

But he need not surrender yet since his jail term has been suspended for 30 days to allow him to appeal his conviction in the Supreme Court.

Mr Ponmudy ceases to be a minister after his conviction and his higher education portfolio is likely to be handed over to another cabinet colleague.

Under the law, members of the legislatures are disqualified from either the parliament or the assembly if they are convicted by a court.

Justice G Jayachandran pointed to overwhelming evidence against him while setting aside the unsustainable reasons given by the trial court for his acquittal. The judge called the trial court's judgment palpably wrong, which made it a fit case for the appellate court' interference.

His sentencing came a day after Tamil Nadu Governor RN Ravi demanded that Chief Minister MK Stalin drop him from his cabinet, according to sources.

Listen to the latest songs, only on JioSaavn.com

The case dates back to the DMK's 2006-2011 regime when the convicted leader had accumulated over ₹ 1.36 crore in assets. It was brought to the court by the rival AIADMK, which came to power in 2011.

The case has led to another flashpoint between the Tamil Nadu government and the Governor in recent days. The two sides are locked in conflict in the Supreme Court after the ruling DMK accused Mr Ravi of deliberately delaying clearing bills passed by the state Assembly

Ruckus in Lok Sabha over security breach; Opposition demands Amit Shah’s resignation

14-Dec-2023 453

Aruckus broke out in the Lok Sabha on Thursday after Opposition MPs demanded resignation of Union Home Minister Amit Shah over the Parliament security breach incident.

The Opposition MPs disrupted the House proceedings and raised slogans, prompting Speaker Om Birla to adjourn the House till 2 pm.

“All of us are concerned about what happened in the House yesterday and the security of the House is the responsibility of the Lok Sabha Secretariat,” Birla said.

Congress MP Shashi Tharoor said the government is not taking the issue seriously and demanded that Shah address the House.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi also held a meeting on Thursday with senior Cabinet ministers, including Shah and Anurag Thakur, over the incident.

Meanwhile, the Delhi police special cell has registered a case under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act in the matter.

The police have arrested six people, including four main accused and two others for giving shelter to them. One more accused is on the run.

The incident took place on Wednesday during the Zero Hour in the Lok Sabha when two men — Manoranjan D and Sagar Sharma — jumped in the well from the visitor’s gallery and set off canisters that emitted a yellow smog.

Their other two associates – Neelam Azad and Amol Shinde – fired similar canisters outside the Parliament and shouted slogans against “dictatorship, injustice and unemployment”.

According to reports, they all were part of a Facebook page on legendary freedom fighter Bhagat Singh and were inspired by his 1929 act in which Singh and Batukeshwar Dutt hurled bombs in the British Parliament from the visitor’s gallery.

They allegedly wanted to draw Parliament’s attention towards the issues of unemployment, women’s safety and farmer’s plight.
