DMK filing fabricated cases to subdue the growing influence of BJP in T.N., says four-member delegation

Almost all of the 409 cases filed against BJP cadre members in Tamil Nadu in the last two years were found to be “fabricated” in an inquiry conducted by a four-member delegation sent by the national leadership of the BJP. The delegation observed that the DMK government was filing “fabricated cases” against BJP functionaries to “subdue the party’s growing influence in the State”.

The delegation comprising former Karnataka Chief Minister D.V. Sadananda Gowda, MPs Satya Pal Singh and P.C. Mohan and BJP’s Andhra Pradesh president D. Purandeswari met with the BJP functionaries in Tamil Nadu who faced cases, and the family members of six persons who were arrested recently. They later met with Governor R.N. Ravi and presented a memorandum based on their findings.

The delegation was sent by the national leadership of the BJP to inquire into the legitimacy of the cases filed against several members of the BJP.
