PMK president Dr Anbumani Ramadoss on Friday urged Chief Minister MK Stalin to order an inquiry into the allegation of ₹90 cr loot committed every year by officials and contractors of Tamil Nadu Water Supply and Drainage (TWAD) Board who pay only 40% to 50% wages to workers.

The TNIE carried a detailed report about the issue on Friday.

In a post on his ‘X’ handle, Anbumani said it was condemnable that no action has been taken against those responsible for the scam, which has been going on for over 20 years. “There is no greater crime or sin in the world than embezzling wages meant for contract workers. The Tamil Nadu government must order a fair inquiry into this scam. Those behind it must be identified and punished,” he demanded.
