The New Indian Express
|October 22, 2025
FINDING various irregularities in the department of geology and mining in Dindigul, the Madurai Bench of Madras High Court has directed the Directorate of Vigilance and Anti-Corruption (DVAC) to conduct an investigation by a DSP-rank officer, and complete it in six months.
Justice B Pugalendhi gave the direction recently while hearing a petition filed by T Dinesh Kumar who sought police protection alleging life threat from a former assistant geologist of the department and a quarry operator.
Dinesh Kumar stated that he worked in the department on consolidated pay from 2018 to 2020 and was later unofficially engaged by the officials at a consolidated salary of 10,000 per month. The officials used him to collect bribe from quarry operators, he added.
