Minister for Energy and Law C.T.R. Nirmal Kumar on Wednesday alleged that the DMK had been repeatedly attempting to lure legislators of the Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK) with offers of money.

A function to distribute bank loan linkage orders to women entrepreneurs, organised by the Departments of Rural Development and Panchayat Raj and the Tamil Nadu Corporation for Development of Women, was held at the auditorium of the Madurai Government Medical College. Collector Nishanth Krishna presided over the event.

The Minister distributed loans worth ₹137.01 crore to 14,649 women’s self-help groups (SHGs) and addressed the gathering.

Speaking to reporters later, Nirmal Kumar said that financial assistance had not reached women’s self-help groups properly over the past 10 years, with middlemen indulging in irregularities. The government had taken steps to revive the groups and ensure that assistance reached them directly. A sum of ₹3,000 crore had been allocated for the purpose, he said.

Asked about MLA Mustafa’s allegation that attempts had been made to strike a deal with him, the Minister said that efforts by the AIADMK and the DMK to woo TVK legislators had been continuing since the Assembly election results were declared. Several persons, including an influential individual from Karur, had been arrested in connection with such attempts, he claimed.

He alleged that DMK president M.K. Stalin and Deputy Chief Minister Udhayanidhi Stalin had now intensified these efforts. This, he said, was the reason behind their claims that the TVK government would collapse within a few months.
