Tamil Nadu BJP president K. Annamalai on Wednesday urged Chief Minister M.K. Stalin to remove Minister for Electricity, Prohibition and Excise V. Senthilbalaji from the Cabinet to ensure fair investigation into the corruption case against him.
Mr. Annamalai, in a statement, referred to the recent judgment of the Supreme Court, ordering continuation of the investigation into the corruption case against Mr. Senthilbalaji. The Supreme Court also allowed the Enforcement Directorate to proceed with its investigation into money laundering charges against the Minister.
