Former Tamil Nadu School Education Minister Anbil Mahesh Summoned By Chennai CCB Over Private School Approval Fraud Case

Former Tamil Nadu School Education Minister Anbil Mahesh Poyyamozhi has been summoned by the Chennai Central Crime Branch (CCB) police to appear for questioning over a private school approval fraud case. The CCB, which conducted an eight-hour search at the former minister's residences in Chennai and Tiruchirappalli over allegations of a Rs 100 crore bribery scam, has booked his name in a Prevention of Corruption Act case.

The search involved the seizure of 118 items, including property deeds, bank statements, mobile phones, laptops, and tablets. Anbil Mahesh has denied the allegations, calling the raid a "political vendetta" and "diversionary tactics" by the ruling party. He further stated that the action against him was due to his public criticism of the state government's plan to establish a new Secretariat-Assembly complex.
