Hindustan Times Gurugram
|October 30, 2025
Tamil Nadu’s Opposition alliance on Wednesday accused the state’s Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam-led government of not acting on information from the Enforcement Directorate, alleging corruption in the recruitment of 2,538 posts in Municipal Administration and Water Supply (MAWS) department, even as the government claimed the ED was raking up an old case of false allegations ahead of 2026 assembly polls.
ED, in a letter dated October 27 to the Tamil Nadu police, alleged that bribes of ₹25-35 lakh per post were exchanged for 2,538 posts in the MAWS department. It said that while investigating a bank fraud in April, they found evidence of corruption in staff hiring in MAWS in 2024-25 and 2025-26 in seized devices.
