To

Hon’ble Governor, State of Tamil Nadu Governor’s Secretariat, Raj Bhavan, Chennai – 600 022 [email protected]

Your Excellency,

Vanakkam.

Sub: Representation against the Council of Ministers, Government of Tamil Nadu for corruption, abuse of public office and obstruction of justice and other criminal offences

1. We are sending this representation in light of the continued obstruction of legal proceedings by the Council of Ministers of the Government of Tamil Nadu by influencing the Police Department, the Directorate of Vigilance and Anti-Corruption and the State Vigilance Commission in order to prevent registration of First Information Report (F.I.R) and thereafter, any impartial and fair investigation into allegations of corruption against them.

2. While doing so, the Council of Ministers, led by the Hon’ble Chief Minister, have continued to exert undue influence on public servants in order to stop them from taking action against organized plunder of the public exchequer. As such, these actions have broken the backbone of the principle of accountability, which is enshrined in the Constitution of India, various statutory enactments,

6

the diktats of the Hon’ble Supreme Court of India (notably, in Vineet Narain -vs.- Union of India) and the Hon’ble High Courts.

3. As your Excellency is the head of the Executive of the State, a constitutional duty is cast upon you to ensure the probity and integrity of the Council of Ministers, upon whose aid and advice the Government of the State is conducted. At present, the police and vigilance authorities and also, the prosecution is directly under the control and supervision of the Council of Ministers, particularly the Hon’ble Chief Minister, to whom all of the heads of the aforementioned departments report.

4. In summary, these are cogent allegations of serious and cognizable criminal offences, which are being levelled against the members of the Council of Ministers. A bare reading of these allegations would reveal and establish prima facie cases of acts of corruption, accumulation of assets disproportionate to known sources of income and other offences punishable under the Prevention of Corruption Act 2018, unlawfully influencing commercial tenders leading to breach of Transparency in Tenders Rules 2000, misappropriation of public funds, criminal breach of trust as a public servant and other offences under the Indian Penal Code 1860, etc., are detailed in this Representation, for your knowledge and swift action.

5. So far, the DravidaMunnetraKazhagam (“DMK”), through its Organziation Secretary, Thiru. R.S. Bharathi (Member of Parliament) has filed complaints against seven Ministers namely, Mr. Edapadi K Palanisami, Mr. O.Paneerselvam, Mr. P. Thangamani, Mr. S.P. Velumani, Dr. C. Vijayabhaskar and Mr. R. B. Udhayakumar. Similarly, Mr. Appavu ex-MLA had filed a complaint against Thiru.R. Kamaraj. Furthermore, Mr. S. Sudharsanam MLA and Mr. Tha. Mo. Anbarasan MLA (both, belonging to the DMK) have filed complaints with regard to the corruption in procurement of walkie-talkies and bribes paid by Cognizant Technology Solutions.

6. In spite of our actions in bringing these allegations along with specific and verifiable details to the information of the law enforcement agencies, there has been little or no progress in terms of registration of FIR or conduct of an independent and reliable investigation. As such, we have reasons to believe that the Council of Ministers is preventing the law from taking its course and that this is a further and more serious criminal act being coordinated under the leadership of Mr. Edapadi K. Palanisami.

7. Therefore, we submit a compilation of these complaints in the hope that you, as the Head of the Executive, will initiate enquiry, insulate the law enforcement agencies from external influence and establish the rule of law in the State of Tamil Nadu:

7

I. HON’BLE CHIEF MINISTER THIRU. EDAPADI K. PALANISAMI

A. CORRUPTION IN AWARD OF TENDERS TO HIS RELATIVES

1. A complaint was given by Thiru. R. S. Bharathi, MP on

13.06.2018 against the Chief Minister to the Director, Directorate of

Vigilance and Anti-Corruption. No action was taken by the

Directorate, forcing Thiru. Bharathi to approach the Hon’ble High

Court in Crl. OP. No. 20711 of 2018.

2. The Directorate which did not show any inclination to

investigate the complaint showed unusual alacrity at the instance of

the Minister and closed the complaint without registering any First

Information Report and examining witnesses during the pendency of

the petition before the Hon’ble High Court.

3. The Hon’ble High Court allowed the petition filed by Thiru.

Bharathi and transferred investigation of the complaint to the Central

Bureau of Investigation. Even while the Minister himself has obtained

a stay of the Hon’ble High Court’s order from the Hon’ble Supreme

Court in SLP (Crl.) No. 9548 of 2018, the Directorate of Vigilance and

Anti-Corruption, at the instance of the Minister, has also been forced

to file a separate petition in SLP (Crl.) No. 9005 of 2018 in order to

shield the Minister from liability.

4. The gist of the allegations in the complaint is as follows:

8

a) Thiru. Edapadi. K. Palanisamy, being a public servant,

entered into a criminal conspiracy with Chandrakanth Ramalingam,

P. Subramaniam, P.Nagarrajan, J.Sekar @Sekar Reddy and the

firms, M/s Ramalingam & Company, SPK an Company Expressway

Private Limited, and Balaji Toll Ways (Madurai) Private Limited,

abused his official Position as Chief Minister and Minister for

Highways and Minor Ports and thereby committed criminal

misconduct, obtained undue pecuniary advantage for himself and

thus committed offences punishable under Section 120-B of IPC and

13(1) (d) r/w 13(2) of the Prevention of Corruption Act, 1988.

b) Thiru. Palanisami was the Highways Minister during the

period from 2011 to 2016 when late Selvi. J. Jayalalitha was the

Chief Minister. As Highways Minister, he had control over the award

of Government contracts for laying roads under the Highways

Department.

c) The above contracts have been awarded to these two firms

at an inflated rate thereby causing undue pecuniary advantage to

them only because the two firms are controlled by persons who are

closely related to Thiru. Palanisami’s son Mithun. The modus, it

appears is to eliminate and dissuade all eligible contractors from

participating in the bid by adopting intimidating tactics.

B. CORRUPTION IN FREE PDS RICE SCHEME GIVEN BY THE CENTRAL GOVT

The Union Government by its policy decision had decided to

distribute 5kg rice to each beneficiaries under TPDS (AAY & PHH)

card holders at free of cost for three months from April, May and

June 2020 as additional allocation of food grains and distribution

under the PRADHAN MANTRI GARIB KALYAN ANNA YOJANA (in

short PMGKAY) to each State and UTs. Tamil Nadu state is one

among them. Accordingly, the Union of India issued order under its

Ministry of Consumer Affairs, Food and Public Distribution

Department of Food and Public Distribution in vide ref. No. F.No. 7-

1/2019 (ii) – BP.III, dated 30.03.2020. The Ministry advised all the

State and UT governments to lift additional allocation together with

the monthly allocation under National Food Security Act (in short

NFSA) within timelines. It is very clearly mentioned that the free rice

for AAY and PHH – UPDS family card holders/beneficiaries shall be

distributed 5kg per person to each of the beneficiaries for three

months (April, May and June 2020). Further the Annexure of the said

order has given clear details of number of beneficiaries/persons to

each State and UTs vice for the additional free rice. As per the order

dated 30.03.2020 of Union of India, the breakup of the number of

beneficiaries and quantum of the additional free rice 5kg per person

for our State is hereunder:

DETAILS OF TAMIL NADU PDS FAMILY CARD HOLDERS

UNDER PMGKAY

1. No. of persons in AAY card holders in TN 73, 27,000

2. No. of persons in PHH card holders in TN 2,84,07,000

The total No. of beneficiaries per month :3,57,34,000

12

1. Rice 5kg per person of AAY card holders : 36,635.19 MTs

2. Rice 5kg per person of PHH card holders : 1,42,033.37 MTs

Total amount of free rice per month : 1,78,668.56 MTs

2. Accordingly the Union of India allotted additional free rice to

our State to distribute to (1,78,668.56 X 3 months) 5,36,005.68 MTs

for 3.57 crores of beneficiaries i.e. 5kg per person to AAY & PHH

PDS card holder families for three months i.e., April to June 2020.

3. Our State have issued 3 categories of PDS cards to the 2.08

cr families. The 3 categories are (1) AAY- Andhyodaya Anna Yojana,

(2) PHH - Priority Household card and (3) NPHH – Non-Priority

Household cards. Our State is having policy of distributing rice to all

3 categories of card holders at free of cost. Hence Government

decided that the NPHH family PDS card holders also would get the

same quantum of additional free rice as the AAY & PHH card holders

in our State for three months. Therefore, it enumerated the NPHH

UPDS card holds as 85,99,301 in our State.

4. Consequent to the order of Union of India dated 30.03.2020,

Co-operation, Food and Consumer Protection Department of our

State Government issued government order in vide G.O.(Ms).No. 52,

dated 27.04.2020 agreed to lift the total additional allocation of

1,78,668.56 Mts free rice and distribute the same to AAY and PHH

card holders’ each family members to 5kg per member for April to

June,20. Further the Government decided to purchase and distribute

additional free rice of 5kg per person to 85,99,302 NPHH-UPDS

family card holders for three months i.e. 66,271 MTs (per month) @

Rs.22/- per kg from Food Corporation of India which cost a sum of

13

Rs.146 crores per month and total cost for three months rice comes

to Rs. 438 cr to total quantum of rice 1,98,813 MTs. Further, it is to

be noted that the authority expressed its inability to lift additional

allotted free rice for AAY & PHH card holders and has not yet been

lifted and distributed, and also not yet purchased the1,98,813 Mts

additional rice for NPHH card holders as on 27.04.2020.

5. While it being so, on 22.05.2020, the Hon’ble Minister for

Food and Civil Supplies Mr. R. Kamaraj issued a press release

bearing PR No. 359 where he claims that it was his submission to

the Hon’ble Minister for Consumer Affairs, Food and Public

Distribution System of Union of India during video conference (no

date is mentioned when the said video conference was held) that as

on 22.05.2020 the additional allocation of free rice 5,01,649 MTs

was lifted out of total 5,36,005 MTs free rice of 5kg per person and

96.3% of beneficiaries (AAY & PHH UPDS card holders) were

distributed in the month of April and 85% of beneficiaries were

distributed for the month of May as on 21.05.2020.

6. The Hon’ble Minister Mr. R.Kamaraj surreptitiously

suppressed his statement dated 22.05.2020 that the corruption of

selling the additional free rice in open market which was allocated

under the PMGKAY-NFSA scheme to distribute the AAY & PHH card

holders of Tamil Nadu. Because on 27.04.2020 his department

pleaded to the Central Government that “as due to short time period

available for mobilization of this huge stock of rice from the FCI to

Tamil Nadu Civil Supplies Corporation godowns and then from Tamil

Nadu Civil Supplies Corporation godowns to the respective fair price

shops. Additional entitlement of rice allotted for April 2020 which

remains undrawn as per the revised entitlement issued under this

14

Government Order can be drawn by the card holders in the Months

of May and June 2020 along with revised entitlement.” But within

about 20 days, he claimed that he lifted free rice of 5,01,649 Mts rice

and distributed the same to AAY & PHH UPDS card holders totalling

96.3% of beneficiaries in April and 85% of beneficiaries in May. He

issued such statement intentionally to coverup his wrongful gain of

huge money and corruption by selling the said rice in open market.

The statement of the Minister for Food and Civil Supplies Mr.

R.Kamaraj in his PR No. 359, dated 22.05.2020 was evidence of

conspiracy to smuggle and sell the entire additional allocated free

rice in open market. And in the same statement, he said that

additional rice for NPHH card holders of 1,98,813 MTs was just

purchased. He did not mention it was lifted and distributed to the

beneficiaries of NPHH card holders as on 22.05.2020. Hence, it is

evident that the additional free rice for NPHH card holders were not

distributed as on 22.05.2020.

7. Further the Hon’ble Chief Minister has also common

intention with ulterior motive of supporting the Hon’ble Minister R.

Kamaraj to sell free rice and purchased rice in open market to get

wrongful gain. Hence, to support Mr. R. Kamaraj, on 19.06.2020 the

Hon’ble Chief Minister issued his press release bearing PR No. 438

where he mentioned particularly that all NPHH card holders

(85,99,302 card holders) were distributed free rice of 5kg per person

for the 3 months. He cleverly omitted to mention that the additional

free rice of 5kg per person per month for the three months was

distributed to all AAY & PHH UPDS family card holders. When the

additional rice of 1,98,813 MTs was not purchased as on 27.04.2020

and as per statement of Minister R. Kamaraj dated 22.05.2020 he

said the additional rice was just purchased as on 22.05.2020, but it

15

was not lifted from FCI godowns and not distributed to the NPHH

beneficiaries as on 22.05.2020. Therefore, the Hon’ble Chief Minister

and Hon’ble Minister for Food and Civil Supplies Mr. R. Kamaraj had

jointly and severally sold the free rice and purchased rice for the

beneficiaries in open market by which they gained wealth illegally.

8. There is a huge scam and corruption going on by cheating

the public by the Hon’ble Chief Minister and Minister Mr. R. Kamaraj.

Enquiries reveal that the Thooththukudi CSCID wing police

intercepted the PDS rice and found about 2,100kg PDS rice at one

private rice mill illegally for polishing the same to re-pack as 5kg,

10kg and 20kg bags in various brands to sell the same in open

market @ Rs.30/- to Rs.40/- per kg. This rice was directly brought

from the TNCSC godowns with assistance of TNCSC employees.

The FIR states that they used to record as if the rice was distributed

to card holders and then they unloaded the rice in such private rice

mills from TNCSC godowns. The CSCID wing registered this crime in

FIR as FIR No. 72 of 2020, dated 13.06.2020 and seized the PDS

rice along with lorry which smuggled the rice.

10. The reputed print media ‘Tamil Hindu’ dated 03.07.2020

published a news article that still rice was not distributed to UPDS

card holders/beneficiaries and those to whom free rice was not

distributed, will be given time till 10.07.2020. Further another reputed

print media in English newspaper Times of India published that

about 80% of UPDS card holders were not distributed the amount of

Rs.1000/- which was meant for the month of June 2020 and also

states the about 6.4 lakhs of families of Chennai have been

unavailable to distribute dole for the month of June 2020. Therefore,

the press releases of the Hon’ble Chief Minister and Hon’ble Minister

16

R.Kamaraj are false and it was meant to cover up of selling the

additional free rice in the open market to swindle the public

exchequer money by abusing their official position.

11. This has caused loss of nearly 450 crores of Public

Exchequer.

17

C. CORRUPTION IN HIGHWAY TENDERS

1. The Principal Secretary to Government , Highways and Minor

Ports Department had issued of G.O. Ms No. 40 Highways and Minor

ports (HQ1) department dated 19/2/2020 and subsequently The

Superintendent Engineer, Construction and Maintenance, Highways

Department, Trichy issued a Tender notice bearing Tender notice

number 37/2019-2020/HDO dated 25/02/2020.

2. The tender notice dated 25.02.2020 The Superintendent

Engineer has invited tenders for the subject work for initial

rectification including widening, strengthening and Improvements and

Performance Based Maintenance Contract(PBMC) for a period of 60

months(5 years) in the State Highways and the Major District Roads

for a length of 462.211 KM in Thanjavur, Orathanadu, Pattukottai and

Peravoorani, Sub Divisions of Thanjavur [H] C & M, Division. The

tender notice invites Scheduled Tender under two sealed cover

system through online only i.e., Pre-Qualification schedule and

financial cover containing price bid document of tender (Item rate

tenders). The EMD (Earnest Money Deposit) was fixed at Rs. 582.60

lakhs and the estimated amount of the tender was fixed at

Rs.116500.00 lakhs(Rs. 1165 crores).The tender documents were

made available upto 15.00 hrs on 15/04/2020 and the bids were to

be submitted through online upto 15.00 hrs on 15/04/2020.

3. Although what was unusual about this tender was till now road

laying and maintenance of state and national highways roads have

been on the basis of annual tenders but this particular G.O and

subsequent tender notice was for a period of 5 years. And this

G.O.(Ms) No.40,Highways and Minor Ports (HQ1) department dated

19.02.2020, to undertake Ordinary Maintenance, initial Rectification

18

Works, Periodic Maintenance Work on select road totalling

approximately 462.211 KM in Thanjavur District. The maintenance

work will also include cross drainage works, minor work on the bridge

and road side maintenance within the select road limits. Ordinary

maintenance will be payable as proportionate monthly lumpsums

over the 5 years period of the Contract.

4. The Superintending Engineer, Highways Department ,

(Construction and Maintenance), Trichy, had issued a Tender Notice

No, 37/2019-2020/HDO dated 25.02.2020 inviting Tender works for

the purpose of introducing for the first time Performance Based

Maintenance Contract [PBMC] tender system and the same is

aimed to create a monopoly of only big contractors, with the intention

of supporting contractors who are in the ruling party or close to the

ruling party. This has affected the small contractors who would

always bid for an annual tender instead of a 5 years tender which

was never in practice.

5. This monopoly for contractors who are in the ruling party or

close to the ruling party is being created adverse to the interests of

the state exchequer. Rs. 1165 crores is being allotted to one

contractor for the work which is usually done by several Class - I

contractors in small bits and lots annually under the direct

supervision of sub-divisional officers. Now without any proper reason

the system is being changed for allotment of one big lot of 462.211

Kms in Thanjavur, Orathanadu, Pattukottai and Peravoorani sub-

divisions of Thanjavur (H) C&M division.

6. This has been done by the department in a hurried manner

even G.O and tender notice there is a discrepancy of Rs. 74.68

Crores in the value of the cost of the work for 462.211 kms. As per

the G.O. the value of the work is Rs. 1239.68 crores and as per the

19

tender notice it is 1165 crores. The value of the work has been hiked

in the government order and this is detrimental to the public interests

and the state exchequer. The same work done annually would cost

just about 75-100 crores and for 5 years (60 months) including

maintenance would not exceed Rs.500 crores. Thus an excess of

Rs. 700- 800 crores is in-built in the shift to 5 year tender terms.

7. What makes all these action even more suspicious is if the

value of the tender is more than 500 crores, the same has to be

published prominently in various national dailies in English and

Vernacular languages. This has not been done intentionally. And the

present situation of spread of the COVID-19 virus the state is under

quarantine and sec. 144 Cr PC has been passed for the entire state.

From 20th March onwards the state was under travel restrictions and

it was impossible to prepare the papers and file the tender bid.

However regardless of all this affecting the competition the

department have hurriedly processed opening the tender even during

this lock-down period. And it is learnt that only two pre-determined

favoured bidders who have all the papers ready for making their bid

had filed the tenders. It seems that the contractor was decided by the

ruling party even before issuing the G.O and tender notice. Even at a

time of crisis the Government body is being used to mint money

through ponzi schemes and projects which only enriches few

companies which are run by ruling party, people close to the ruling

party and benamis of the Cabinet Ministers, in this case Hon’ble

Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu himself.

8. The department would normally seek pre-qualification of specific

experience of the contractor that he should have successfully

completed contract in any one year within the last five years for a

value of atleast 40% of total contract value of the project, but this

20

tender notification had only fixed 25% of total cost as pre-

qualification which is contrary to their earlier tender notification.

9. The cost indicated in the G.O. is exorbitant and there is an

inbuilt excess of Rs. 700- 800 crores in the shift to 5 year tender

terms.The same work done annually would cost just about 75-100

crores and for 5 years (60 months) including maintenance would not

exceed Rs.500 crores. Thus an excess of Rs. 700- 800 crores is

inbuilt in the shift to 5 year tender terms.

10.In the wake of the funds crunch due to COVID-19 the central

government has sent an advisory to the NHAI and all State

governments to explore the road infrastructure construction cost and

avoid fresh investments in huge projects. When we are facing lack of

funds to get over this pandemic situation and the state government

have been requesting funds from the central governments these type

of projects only showcases the corruption and greediness of the

Ruling Party to amass wealth even at the time of crisis.

11. Mr.R.S.Bharathi has lodged a complaint with DVAC, Since

there was no action he had filed a petition before the Hon’ble High

Court to register a case in W.P.No. 8080/2020. However since it was

represented that the tender itself was cancelled the Petition was

dismissed as withdrawn. However the same methodology was

adopted and the tender was allotted in favour of benami companies

of the CM on 18/11/2020 and 19/11/2020. The approximate value of

the corruption amount is 1500 Crores,in this project alone.

3. It is stated that this is only a tip of the ice berg and only a

thorough probe and proper investigation will reveal the exact

quantum of assets amassed by Thiru. Edapadi K Palanisami.

The vendors namely R.P.Selvasundaram (R.P.P.

Constructions) is one of the Benamies of Thiru. Edapadi

K.Palanisami, who are the main contractors in all over

Tamilnadu. The said Benamis are targeting agricultural land

and are purchasing and registering sale deeds at much lower

value than the actual market value. Further, all these

agricultural lands are being used for commercial purposes

without getting proper sanction from the concerned authorities.

The Agricultural lands are being exploited en masse by Thiru.

Edapadi K.Palanisami and his close associates which have

deep socioeconomic effects in the state. The waste water is

being discharged into villages without seeking permission from

Pollution Control Board. The total properties are worth more

than Rs. 1000 Crores.

HON’BLE DEPUTY CHIEF MINISTER THIRU.O.PANNEERSELVAM

A.DISPROPORTIONATE ASSETS

1. A complaint was given by Thiru.R.S. Bharathi on 10.03.3018

against the Minister to the Director, Directorate of Vigilance and Anti-

Corruption. No action was taken by the Directorate for several

months due to which Thiru. Bharathi was constrained to approach

the Hon’ble High Court in Crl. OP. No. 18091 of 2018 seeking action.

The Hon’ble High Court was pleased to direct the Directorate of

Vigilance and Anti-Corruption to inquire and register a First

Information Report.

2. There has been no inquiry or registration of FIR in the

complaint given by Thiru. Bharathi till date, in flagrant violation of the

order passed by the Hon’ble High Court.

The gist of the allegations in the complaint is as follows:

Check Period 2011 to 2016

a) It is reliably learnt that Thiru. O.Panneerselvam had invested

money and bought properties in the names of his wife, children,

brothers Thiru. O.Raja, Thiru. O. Balamurugan and Thiru.

O.Shanmugha Sundaram and their families and his business

associates including Thiru. R. Subburaj and his wife Tmt. Uma

Maheshwari.

b) In the Affidavits filed before the Election Commission of India

he has made several declarations by suppressing material facts and

by making inconsistent statements which are inherently improbable

and false. Some of the instances where he has made such

declarations are as follows:

32

c) In 2016, he declared in his election affidavit that his income

for 2014-2015 was Rs.5,80,875. However, this is a gross

underestimation for the relevant year as his basic salary as an MLA

(Rs. 55, 000 X 12) was itself Rs. 6, 60, 000. During this period, he

was also the Chief Minister and hence, would have received a higher

salary and other emoluments. During the same period he is said to

have purchased Toyota Innova car (TN 04 AX 2345) worth

Rs.17,85,655/- which is highly improbable considering the total

income earned by him even as per his declaration.

d) Thiru O.Panneerselvam acquired 4 acres and 60 cents of

Punja lands in S.no. 1525 by virtue of a Partition deed dated

27/6/1994 bearing document no. 776/94. It appears he has sold

3 acres 60 cents by virtue of sale deed bearing document no.

1130/1996 and retained 1 acre in the said survey number. However

in the affidavits filed before the Election Commission both in 2011

and 2016 he had not disclosed this property. The reasons for

suppression of this fact has to be investigated.

e) As regards the declarations made by Thiru. O.

Panneerselvam in respect of his wife Vijayalakshmi’s property there

is a steep raise. Mrs. P. Vijayalakshmi W/o. Thiru O.Panneerselvam

owned a house which was bought by her on 2/11/1998 for

Rs.2,71,225/-. In 2011 Thiru O.Panneerselvam declared the value of

the house at Rs. 10,00,000/- that he had made improvement worth

Rs. 5,00,000/- However in 2016 value of the same house was shown

as Rs. 20,00,000/-. The increase in value raises doubt about the

money spent for improvement during the interregnum. Another

instance of false declaration in respect of his wife’s property is in the

affidavit filed during the Election in 2011 where he had declared his

wife’s loan from City Union Bank, George Town Branch as

33

Rs.2,81,314. Whereas records would reveal that his wife actually

received Rs. 9,00,000/-. Likewise, in the very same affidavit he had

declared his wife’s income as Rs. 36,251/- for 2005 & 2006,

whereas the records show that he had paid income tax of Rs.

20,400/- for the same year which is improbable and unbelievable. In

the affidavit in 2011, the value of his wife’s property is estimated as

Rs. 24,20,000/- . In 2016 the properties value was shown as Rs.

78,00,000/- The steep increase in the value considering the fact that

Mrs. P. Vijayalakshmi is a house wife and had no source of income

raises a doubt about the source of acquiring the properties.

f) That apart in the Election Affidavit filed in 2016 the value of land

purchased in 2011 from one A. Kubendran was not shown as also

the property purchased from one Subburaj in the year 2015 bearing

document no. 1508/2014.

g) It is reliably learnt that the following properties are held by

Thiru O. Panneerselvam to his benamies

(i) Bojarajan Mills in Theni district was leased 99 acres of land

(valued at more than 140 crores) for 99 years by the Government.

The lease ended in the year 2011-12. After that, it was purchased of

Thiru. O. Panneerselvam at less than the prevailing market value of

the land through his benamies.

(ii) A mango grove of 150 acres of wetland situated in

ShenbagaThoppu,Srivilliputhur is held by Thiru. O. Panneerselvam in

the name of his benamies

(iii) He controls the cardamom markets through his benamies in

Bodinayakkanur by abusing his official position.

(iv) His sons have invested in various companies and their

source of such investments remain unexplained and needs thorough

investigations.

34

(v) Thiru. O. Panneerselvam’s children, Thiru. P. Raveendranath

Kumar, Thiru V. Jayapradeep and Tmt. Kavitha Banu are directors of

various companies. They have made investments more than

200 crores in companies engaged in myriad range of activities not

only in India but also in the U.S., Turkey, Indonesia and Malaysia.

(vi) Thiru. O. Panneerselvam’s son V. Jayapradeep was not

even 25 years of age before becoming a director of 3 companies:

Willownet Exim Pvt. Ltd, Vijayanth Developers Pvt. Ltd and Vani

Fabrics Pvt. Ltd. It is improbable that at this age he had the financial

means to invest in these companies.

(vii) Vani Fabrics Pvt. Ltd paid its directors, Thiru. P.

Raveendranath Kumar and Thiru. V. Jayapradeep, three times the

salary (Rs. 9, 00, 000) as other directors for the year 2015-2016. In

fact, they were paid more than the managing director. These facts

establish that the companies are being floated by the children of

Thiru.O.Pannerselvam only to launder the illegal money obtained by

corruption.

(viii) Thiru. P. Raveendranath Kumar and Thiru. V. Jayapradeep

bought several acres of land valued at Rs. 67, 26, 883 for

themselves and also on behalf of JayamVijayam Enterprises. These

transactions are undervalued and the source of money for these

transactions is unknown. Door No. 113-114, Unit No. 801, 8th Floor,

Raheja Towers, Anna Salai is the address is the Registered Address

of Xllent Marine Line Pvt. Ltd, and also, RIMART International Pvt.

Ltd, Perigon IT Edu Pvt. Ltd although these companies have different

directors and are engaged in completely different business

activities.These companies and other companies like Paapa Builders

Pvt. Ltd where associates of Thiru. O. Panneerselvam are directors

and shareholders are not legitimately conducting any business

35

activity, accurately representing their true financial

situation,complying with all laws including the Companies Act and

acting as a conduit for laundering money on behalf of Thiru.

O.Panneerselvam and his associates.

h) Besides the above the said, Thiru O. Panneerselvam had indulged

in abuse of power to obtain pecuniary advantage for his family

members.

i) His sons Thiru P.Raveendranath Kumar and Thiru V. Jayapradeep

are directors in Vani Fabrics Pvt. Ltd. and have made substantial

investments in the company. Through their shareholding in the above

company, they also own shares in Veena Fabrics Pvt. Ltd. In order to

obtain undue advantage to them, whenThiru. O. Panneerselvam

was Chief Minister from 28.09.2014 to 22.05.2015, through G.O.(Ms)

No. 45 dated 25.03.2015, the Value Added Tax for dealers on works

contract relating to sizing of yarn and sale of cardamom were

exempted and reduced from 5 per cent and 2 per cent respectively.

This decision has cost the state thousands of crores in revenue while

benefitting his and associates’ private financial interests.

j) In Periyakulam, until July 12, 2017, Tmt. P. Viyayalakshmi owned

40 acres of land along the Varattaru river. In violation of the law, four

bore wells were dug within just 50m of the river bank depleting the

river and causing distress to surrounding farmers. After widespread

protests, she transferred the land worth Rs. 23,66,290 to Thiru.

R.Subburaj for 20,10,000.

k) A direct link connecting Thiru. O. Panneerselvam with

illegal gratification for official favours was furnished by the diary

maintained by Thiru. J. Sekar Reddy, partner of the SRS Mining

Company. Investigation into the information in that Diary by the CBI

36

and the Income Tax Department is ongoing. According to the entries

made in the diary, Thiru. O. Panneerselvam and his associates

received almost four crores in just six months (June - November,

2016). The scale of corruption practiced by Thiru. O. Panneerselvam,

as suggested by the diary for only a few months, is mind

boggling.Thiru. O. Panneerselvam has betrayed the trust of his

electorate and has instead sought to extend illegal favours to

industrialists for his personal benefit.

B. CONFLICT OF INTEREST, QUID PRO QUO

1.One more complaint was given by Thiru. R.S.Bharathi on

22.05.2020 against the Minister to the Director, Directorate of

Vigilance and Anti-Corruption.

2.There has been no inquiry or registration of FIR in the complaint

given by Thiru. Bharathi till date in violation of the decision of the

Constitution Bench of the Hon’ble Supreme Court in Lalita Kumari vs

State of UP. The gist of the allegations in the complaint is as follows

a) Use of Range Rover

Recent media reports have revealed that the Deputy Chief Minister,

Mr. O.Panneerselvam was seen traveling in Range Rover bearing

registration number TN 05 CE 2345 (hereinafter, “Range Rover”).

Road Transport Authority records show that this vehicle has been

registered in the name of M/s Vijayanth Developers Private Limited

(hereinafter, “M/s Vijayanth”). Ministry of Corporate Affairs website

shows that M/s Vijayanth has three Directors:

Mr. JayapradeepPannerselvam

Mr. Raveendranath Kumar

Ms. Kavitha Banu

37

The three Directors, named above, are children of Mr. O. Panneer

selvam. Mr. O.Panneerselvam has been provided with an official

vehicle – Innova Crysta bearing registration number TN 06 BG 2345

– since 2017 and therefore, there is no cogent and believable reason

why Mr. O. Panneerselvam has been using the Range Rover car

which belongs to a private company (M/s Vijayanth). According to the

financial documents submitted by the company to the Ministry of

Corporate Affairs, the car was bought using a loan advanced by

HDFC in February 2019 for a total sum of INR 63,52,779 /- (Rupees

Sixty Three Lakhs, Fifty Two Thousand, Seven Hundred and Seventy

Nine Only).

b) Conflict of Interest

Mr. O. Panneerselvam has been serving as Deputy Chief Minister

since August 2017 and holds charges of the following portfolios:

Finance, Planning, Legislative Assembly, Elections and Passports,

Housing, Rural Housing and Housing Development, Slum Clearance

Board and Accommodation Control, Town Planning, Urban

Development and Chennai Metropolitan Development Authority.

These facts mentioned hereinabove have given rise to a number of

serious issues of corruption and make out a prima facie case for

initiating a criminal investigation inter alia into the following issues:

Mr. O.Panneerselvam (Deputy Chief Minister, Tamil Nadu), as a

public servant, has obtained pecuniary benefit of over INR

62 lakhs by availing the use of Range Rover car which is owned by

a private company i.e. M/s Vijayanth Developers Pvt. Ltd.

M/s Vijayanth Developers Pvt. Ltd., a company which was dormant

and no business activity from 2008 till 2017 is a shell company for

laundering money.

38

M/s Vijayanth Developers Pvt. Ltd. obtained a bank loan by falsely

stating that it was for erecting and running a windmill in

Dharmapuram but instead used the loan amount to purchase land in

Tiruppur.

Mr. Raveendranath Kumar and O. Panneerselvam had misused the

authority and position of the office of Minister of Government of

Tamil Nadu by providing the address of one of the Directors of

M/s.Vijayanth Developers Pvt. Ltd. (i.e. Mr. Raveendranath Kumar)

as ‘No. 147, Thenpannai, Greenways Road, R.A.Puram, Chennai –

600 028’ which is the address allotted to Mr. O.Panneerselvam in his

capacity as Minister to the Government of Tamil Nadu.

Whether M/s Vijayanth Developers Pvt. Ltd., having undertaken no

previous construction work or activity, has the requisite expertise to

carry out a development project involving construction of 117 plots

covering an extent of 36,500 sq.m

It is not known on what basis was the DTCP approval given to M/s

Vijayanth Developers Pvt. Ltd. on 05.12.2019 when they had no

prior experience in construction or development business?

On what basis was TNRERA project registration approval given to

M/s Vijayanth Developers Pvt. Ltd., a company with no prior

experience in real estate/ construction / development business?

Hence, There is a clear case of quid pro quo involving Mr.

O.Panneerselvam using the Range Rover car belonging to Ms/

Vijayanth Developers Pvt. Ltd., which company having no prior

experience in construction or development business was provided

with DTCP approval by a department which is one of the portfolios

held by Mr. O. Panneerselvam.

39

c) Loss to Government

G.O.(Ms) No. 178 (HCS1)

On the basis of letters from the Registrar of Co-operative Societies

(Housing) dated 26.02.2019, 01.03.2019 an 31.10.2019, G.O.(Ms)

No. 178(HCS1) dated 12.11.2019 was issued providing Government

Guarantee of INR 462.69 crore for implementation of a house site

scheme in an area comprised in survey numbers 148/4B & others at

Varadarajapuram&Erumaiyur Villages, Sriperumbudur Taluk,

Kancheepuram. The scheme details are as provided by the Registrar

of Co-operative Societies, is as follows:

Extent of Land to be purchased: 120 acres

Cost of one acre (developed): INR 701.04 lakhs

Total Cost: INR 841.25 lakhs.

40

C. BRIBE PAID BY U.S. COMPANY TO EB AND PLANNING PERMISSION ETC.,

Mr.Tha.Mo.Anbarasan , our party MLA has lodged a complaint on

18/02/2019 with the Joint Director of CBI, Chennai and the gist of the

Complaint is as follows:-

In the order dt. 15.02.2019 taken in cease-and-desist proceedings

by the Securities and Exchange Commission of United States of

America, as published in a Release No.85149, initiated against

Cognizant Technology Solutions Corporation, in paragraph No.16,

it has been recorded as follows:

“Bribe Payment in Siruseri, Tamil Nadu

16. In Siruseri, Cognizant India authorized Contracting Firm-1 to pay

bribes totaling $840,000 to government officials for the issuance of

several construction-related permits, including a planning permit, a

power permit from the local electricity board, and an environmental

clearance. Contracting Firm-1 made the payments in or around 2012,

and Cognizant subsequently received the permits in the second half

of that year. The contractor submitted change order requests for

several inflated or unjustified work items. Cognizant India rejected

the initial requests, but later approved the change orders after the

sham descriptions were revised. Cognizant India reimbursed

Contracting Firm-1 for the bribe payments in installments between

2015 and 2016.”

3. A reading of the above paragraph in the order revealed that there

was a demand of bribe by the Government Officials from

Cognizant Company, for issuance of Construction-related permits

i.e. Planning Permits, clearances for providing Electricity Service

41

Connections to the Constructions made by Cognizant India Ltd. and

also Environmental clearances. The demanded bribe has been paid

by the Contracting Firm – 1 which has been later reimbursed by

Cognizant India. The total bribe paid on behalf of Cognizant company

was equivalent to $840,000 Million US Dollars, which is a huge

amount in Indian Rupees.

4. Without the knowledge of the Ministers of the concerned

Department, the demand of bribe would not have been made by the

officials, as the projects that were carried out by a Foreign Based

company through its Indian subsidiary company. There must be an

understanding among the Company, Government Officials and the

Government in the process of clearing the projects by granting

Planning Permits, Electricity Connection and Environmental

Clearances. In fact, the demanded and paid bribe amount has been

reimbursed by Cognizant company, as recorded in the above said

order.

For discharging the duties, the Government Officials have reportedly

received bribe from the US based company, which is serious and the

officials who involved in the said illegal demand of bribe shall be

dealt with in accordance with Law i.e under the provisions of

Prevention of Corruption Act and other penal Laws covering

international offences as the transaction of amount has been

reportedly transacted from United States for ultimate reimbursement

of bribe paid to the officials of Tamil Nadu Government Officials.

B. CORRUPTION IN LED LAMP FIXATION

A complaint was given by Thiru. M. Appavu on 20.07.2020


Corruption. There has been no action on the complaint by the

Directorate of Vigilance and Anti-Corruption till date in violation of

the decision of the Constitution Bench of the Hon’ble Supreme Court

in Lalita Kumari vs State of UP.


1. According to the announcements of the Hon’ble chief

Minister in assembly in 3 financial years, the Rural Development and

Panchayat Raj Department issued the following Government Orders

for replacing old lights to LED lights in phased manner at Village

Panchayat level for total cost of Rs. 875 cr. The details of orders are

as follows:

Rs. 69.32 cr

And altered as

8,24,000 lights

instead 8,22,000

49

2. When the cost of replacing streetlights comes to Rs. 300 cr

per financial year, there is a duty to issue global e-tender since the

work order sum is exceeding Rs. 10 Cr. as per the Tamil Nadu

Transparency in Tender Act 1998. Knowing fully well that such

tenders within legal parameters may not be helpful to his plan of

wrongfully gaining several crores of public exchequer money, the

Hon’ble Minister Mr. S.P.Velumani constituted a State Level

Committee to fix cost of LED lights for each financial year to fix the

cost of lights and divided the work order in to 38 districts and floated

local e-tenders by District Collector as the work order is reduced to

below Rs.10 crores. By which he surreptitiously achieved avoiding

technically from floating global e-tender. Accordingly, the State Level

Committee (in short SLC) comprised officials as:

a) The Director of Rural Development and Panchayat Raj - Chairman

b) The Chairman/MD of TEDA or his nominee of CMD, TEDA

c) Principal Secretary, Finance Department or his nominee

d) The Supt. Engineer of Rural Development from o/o DRD&PR

f) One Supt. Engineer nominated by the Chairman, TANGEDCO

3. The SLC without being aware of the ground reality or the

cost of each of the LED lights in retail markets or wholesale markets,

fixed abnormal and sky high price to each category of LED lights in

all three 2015-16, 2016-17 and 2017-18 financial years without

applying its mind except executing the Minister’s instructions of fixing

such high and abnormal cost to LED lights by causing huge loss to

public exchequer. As per the Hon’ble Minister’s instructions, the

details of cost fixed by the SLC and comparison the cost of LED

lights in retail market for the 3 financial years and break up is

hereunder :

4. Further, the SLC also framed the terms and conditions of

tenders for the Minister’s men conveniently to get contract for

replacing lights at Districts level. As per the terms and conditions of

the tender framed by the SLC, the District Collectors floated tenders

at District Level to purchase LED lights to Village Panchayats. Since

the script of corruption is well drafted and approved by the Hon’ble

Minister Mr. S.P. Velumani in his department level at the Secretariat,

51

the District Collectors followed the script of corruption to implement

the same by which the Hon’ble Minister pocketed huge exchequer

money through his benami vendors/suppliers/contractors at District

level, who are neither manufacturers of LED lights nor dealers of

branded LED lights companies. Mr. S. P.Velumani constituted the

SLC to take away the financial empowerment granted under

Panchyat Raj Act to the Village Panchayat Presidents is just to

swindle the public exchequer money in single window system. The

usurping of financial empowerment of the Village Panchayat

Presidents grave danger to the Panchayat Raj system.

5. The vendors/suppliers of 20- and 90-Watt LED suppliers to

various districts are either fake or haveno experience in electrical

business or don’t have permanent entities and those are nothing but

benami entities of Hon’ble Minister S. P. Velumani. The sample list of

LED lights benamisuppliers to the districts are hereunder:

6. The so-called supplier in item No. 1 is none else but AIADMK

party Coimbatore District Rural Wing Secretary Mr. Rajan

Chandrasekar. His company has no previous experience of

supplying electrical goods but he is close associate of Mr.

S.P.Velumani. Hence he was awarded contract of supplying LED

lights. The so called suppliers are neither manufacturers of LED

lights nor dealers/agency of manufacturing companies of LED lights.

These so called suppliers purchased these LED lights from open

wholesale market and supplied the same as the price fixed by the

State Level Committee.

53

7. The above-mentioned suppliers from Item No.2 to 11 are not

at all in anyway connected with supplying electrical goods nor bulbs

nor LED lights. For example the address of suppliers in Item No. 9,

10 and 11 would very clearly express whether they are real entities of

doing business. No GST numbers provided by all the

aforementioned suppliers. The so-called suppliers from Item No. 4 to

11, do not have any business entity except lending their names to

obtain contracts illegally to supply LED lights at the rate of sky high

price to assist the Minister Mr. S.P.Velumani to swindle the public

money the assistance of his Administrative Officers. If he had floated

global tender,the LED lights manufacturers companies such as viz.

Osram, Philips, Surya, Voltas, Crompton Greaves, Wipro, NTL

Electronics, etc would have participated and it would be finalized, the

cost of purchasing LED lights would have been10 times lower to

replace all old lights to LED lights with technical experts assistance

to save public money.

8. The Hon’ble Minister Mr. S.P.Velumani hatched the idea of

fixing sky high cost of LED lights under his Administrative

Officers/State Level Committee and drafted the terms of tenders to

enable his benamis to participate and they were awarded contracts

to replace old street lights at Village Panchayats at District/Union

Panchayat level for the fixed sky high price by SLC. When the

20 Watt LED light cost at Rs.450/- with fittings, the State Level

Committee fixed the cost Rs. 3,737/- for 2015-16 FY and Rs.4,120/-

for 2016-17 FY.The 90 watt LED lights available at cost of Rs. 1550/-

with fittings, the State Level Committee fixed cost of the 90Watt LED

light at Rs. 14,919/- during 2017-81 FY. His department utilized the

Rs.811 cr. of State Funds and Rs.69 cr. from District Panchayat

Funds, totally Rs.875 cr. fund was taken out to replace the old lights

54

to LED lights at Village Panchayat level. Under this mechanism of

fixing cost of LED lights and framing terms and conditions of tender

at District level by State Level Committee and awarding contracts to

his benamis, he caused great loss to the exchequer to the tune of

about Rs. 500 cr money and he and the officials of SLC pocketed the

exchequer money about sum of Rs. 500 cr. in the said 3 financial

years and caused loss to the Government.

HON’BLE MINISTER FOR ELECTRICITY THIRU. P. THANGAMANI

A complaint was given by Thiru.R.S. Bharathi on 01.10.2018 against

the Minister to the Director, Directorate of Vigilance and Anti-

Corruption.

There has been no action on the complaint by the Directorate of

Vigilance and Anti-Corruption till date in violation of the decision of

the Constitution Bench of the Hon’ble Supreme Court in Lalita

Kumari v State of UP.


A. IMPORT OF COAL

• Although TANGEDCO had started floating global tenders for

import of coal, it has not evolved any specific policy for importing

coal. In the absence of a comprehensive policy, there was no

direction for key decisions for import, which led to excessive Bid

Qualification Requirement (BQR), non-adoption of e-tendering and

variable pricing method for payment of imported coal which was

taken advantage by Thiru. P. Thangamani who is holding the post of

Electricity, Prohibition and Excise Minister, by misappropriating funds

in purchasing coal during non-crushing period at higher rates.

• Since the time allowed for purchase of tender documents and

submission by the prospective bidders from the date of publishing of

56

the tender was gradually reduced from 30 to 10 days without any

reasons on record, the number of bids received remained at

three/four throughout, thereby limiting competition. Minimum time

specified by the competent authority was 15 days as per Rule 20(2)

of the Tamil Nadu Transparency in Tenders Rules, 2000 (Tender

Rules). It is revealed that 30 days of time was not available between

commencements and closing date of sale of tender document, hence

the provision of tender rules was not followed.

• Thus, using this opportunity as a Minister of Electricity, Prohibition

and Excise Thiru. P. Thangamani exceeded his authority and gave

contracts to the companies through which he obtained wrongful gain

and caused wrongful loss to the Government.

57

B. BIDQUALIFICATION REQUIREMENT (BQR) & INAPPROPRIATE PRICE MANAGMENT

• The criteria fixed (July 2012) in the BQR for import of coal

stipulated that the bidder should have supplied one MMT (Million

Metric Tons) of imported coal during any one of the preceding four

financial years and have an annual average turnover of 1,000 crore

during the preceding three financial years. It is noticed that the

turnover criteria of 1,000 crore was more than the purchase order

value ranging from 68 crore to 330 crores for Tuticorin Port and

170 crore to1, 295 crore for Ennore Port. It is noted that the criteria

fixed (July 2010) by TANGEDCO for all tenders was 25 percent of

the estimated value of the tender. Moreover, TNPL and NTECL fixed

turnover criteria of NIL and 281 crores(26 per cent) against their

value of import of 167 crore and1,092 crore, respectively. This was

done only with a view to eliminate otherwise eligible contractors and

to benefit few pre-selected contractors.

• The import of coal is finalized the competitive prices based on

(i) E-submission method

(ii) Reverse Auction method

(iii) Variable price method

58

C. CONTRACT MANAGEMENT FOR IMPORT OF COAL

A. The Government of India policy stipulated that import

contracts by all Government departments/PSUs are required to be

finalized on Free on Board (FOB) basis to retain control on

shipments and to extend maximum cargo support to the Indian

shipping industry. The policy further stipulated that No Objection

Certificate (NOC) should be obtained from the Ministry of Shipping,

Government of India for deviation from FOB basis on each and every

case. TANGEDCO finalized all coal import contracts on Cost,

Insurance, Freight (CIF) basis but it did not obtain NOC from the

Ministry of Shipping, Government of India as required.

B. As per tender conditions, production of Certificate of Country

of Origin (COO) by the suppliers for all consignments was mandatory

for getting concessional customs duty and ensuring the genuineness

of the import. The tender condition also stipulated that payments

shall be made by TANGEDCO only upon furnishing of COO by the

suppliers. The Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General of India

on Revenue Sector for the year ended 31 March 2017 revealed that

176 out of total 297 consignments were originated from Indonesia as

per Bill of Lading. But the COO was not produced by the suppliers in

respect of all the 176 consignments. Therefore, the genuineness of

the source of import was not established in respect of 176

consignments till October 2017. However, the payment of Rs.

5,767.31 crores was made to the supplier without obtaining

mandatory COO. The COO from Government of the exporting

59

country was not obtained in all the 176 consignments which were

mandatory as per the TANGEDCO’s tender conditions.

D. IMPORT OF LOW-GRADE COAL

A. As per the tender conditions, the Gross Calorific Value

(GCV) of the imported coal was required to be at 6,000 Kcal/Kg with

an acceptable range between 5,800 and 6,700 Kcal/Kg. While there

is no premium for GCV exceeding 6,000 Kcal/Kg, for GCV lower than

6,000 Kcal/Kg, the price was to be adjusted as per the formula

specified in the tender.

B. To ensure GCV of the coal supplied as per tender conditions,

supplier was required to engage independent testing agency with the

approval of TANGEDCO. The quality of coal is decided based on the

reports of these testing agencies. The verification of quality testing in

other PSUs (Public Sector Undertaking) revealed that:

� TNPL selected the testing agency for each consignment of coal

from its empanelled testing agencies through a lot system and coal

samples were collected from the automatic coal sampler installed in

the conveyor at the TNPL plant.

� TNECL (Tamil Nadu Energy Company Limited) also selected the

testing agency from its empaneled testing agencies.

� The quality of coal would be finally decided by both TNPL and

TNECL based on the test conducted at their own laboratories in their

plants.

60

C. The independent verification of the coal quality test reports

from the laboratory of the Customs Department in respect of 121

consignments of TANGEDCO revealed that GCV was lesser than

that of the discharge port laboratory test reports submitted by the

suppliers. TANGEDCO had accepted lower grade of coal as revealed

in the customs test reports but it made payment for coal having GCV

as per the test results submitted by the suppliers’ testing laboratory

and made excess payment of Rs 813.68 crore.

D. Thus Thiru. P. Thangamani being a Minister of Electricity,

Prohibition and Excise abusing his position as a public servant has

engaged in corruption by colluding with TANGEDCO officials by

importing lower grade of coal with intent to misappropriate funds to

the tune of Rs.813.68 crore.

61

E. EID PARRY CONTRACT

A. TANGEDCO’s termination of PPA (Power Purchase

Agreement) in respect of EID Parry (East India Distilleries) was

illegal as it was aware that the power generated by EID Parry was

made available for sale under STOA (Short Term Open Access)

routes at the prices ranging from Rs 5.05 to Rs 5.50 per unit, which

was more than the prevailing rates fixed by TNERC for crushing

season ranging from Rs 3.52 to Rs 3.99 per unit.

B. The price for purchase of power from EID Parry as per the

tariff fixed during 2015 – 2016 and 2016 – 2017, 2017 – 2018 are as

follows:

SI.NO.

YEAR RATE OF POWER TARIFFDURINGCRUSHING SEASON(DECEMBER TOJUNE)

NON - CRUSHING SEASON

1. 2015 – 2016 3.52 5.15 3.52

2. 2016 – 2017 3.99 5.40 3.99

3. 2017 - 2018 4.12 - 4.12

62

C. The purchase of 66.06 MU of power produced by EID Parry

during crushing season at the rates higher than the prevailing rates,

which worked out to Rs 10.90 crore. After the termination of the PPA

with EID parry, TANGEDCO purchased power during the period from

November 2015 to May 2016 on need basis through STOA route.

The purchase of power through STOA route was made at the price

more than the price fixed by TNERC for crushing season and

TANGEDCO intended to purchase surplus power through STOA

route only during Non-crushing season, but it purchased power at

higher rates both during crushing and Non-crushing seasons.

D. Thus, Thiru. P.Thangamani violated the rules of TNERC

(Tamil Nadu Electricity Regulatory Commission) by purchasing 66.06

MU (Million Unit) of power from EID parry at the rates higher than the

notified rates and incurred wrongful loss of Rs 10.90 Crores to

TANGEDCO.

I submit that all the above findings are reflected in Report of the

Comptroller and Auditor General of India on Revenue Sector for the

year ended 31 March 2017.

63

F. CORRUPTION IN PURCHASE OF SPARE PARTS - M/s. BHEL

(BHARATH HEAVY ELECTRICALS LIMITED)

A. A contract was placed on M/s.BHEL, Chennai by

TANGEDCO for design, engineering, manufacture, assembly,
