Former minister Raghupathi opened the offensive by questioning the unconventional presentation style of the Finance Minister, while simultaneously flagging a prolonged vacancy within the Right to Information Commission. These procedural grievances soon escalated into broader accusations of systemic corruption, specifically targeting tender processes and the management of the Water Resources Department.
Higher Education Minister Viswanathan pushed back against claims involving Congress MP Praveen Chakravarthy, labeling the opposition’s line of questioning as improper. Finance Minister Dr. N Marie Wilson sought to stabilize the floor, promising that detailed reports addressing the alleged financial leaks would be released soon. The ministers maintained that their governance remains untainted by the corruption charges leveled against them, ultimately shifting the focus to a demand for fairer tax allocations from the central government.
