Note: This story is based on Author’s fiction. It does not apply to any real-life incidents and historical references.

DISCLAIMER: Let me reiterate again. I have no intentions of spreading hatred against anyone. People are not aware of what could happen if a good ruler comes to power. My intentions are only to make you aware of that and nothing else.

ABOUT THE STORY:

I spent more than one year in order to write this story. This is the first installment in a planned Trilogy. I did lots of research and analysis in depth about the contemporary political issues in India and Tamil Nadu before planning to write this story.

PONDICHERRY:

2:30 AM:

17 JUNE 2020:

Around 2:30 AM, people gathered at the police station of Pondicherry for the arrest of famous and respected lawyer Thilip Krishna. People raised slogans against his arrest and demands for his release to the police officers, who finds it difficult to control them. The next day, Judges slammed the police department for wasting the time of court and grants bail for Thilip, without booking any charges or cases against him.

People felt glad upon seeing him released. He showcased his hands to all of them. Thilip’s eyes are thick and his face was black. He wore the chain of Lord Muruga. Addressing the people, he said: “Dear People. Tamil Nadu police have asked Youtube to block the channel that had offensive content including a post against popular Tamil, Hindu hymn “Kanda Sashti Kavacham. Here after, no one can allegedly give vulgar and offensive interpretation to the centuries-old hymn authored by a revered saint, Bala Devaraya Swami.” Youngsters celebrated his speech.

While driving home, Thilip recalled his life.

TWO YEARS BEFORE:

12 SEPTEMBER 2018:

“When you are doing something that is right, you just do it and take care. Someone has to do this.” This was his policy since childhood days. I hail from Anna Nagar, Madurai, Tamil Nadu. Thilip had studied Law course and Political science in reputed institutions of India. I wrote a book titled “Why I support Narendra Modi?”

Many claimed that Thilip is propagating Indian Janatha Party as a lawyer. But, he didn’t promote this particular party. He have a hidden agenda. And as said by Wikipedia and other people, he’s not supporting right-wing ideologies. He’s neutral in politics. Thilip wanted to get justice for our people’s pains and sufferings.

SEPTEMBER 2018

MADRAS HIGH COURT

His first case was about IPL protest. For this case in High Court of Madras, he collected various evidences and information from lots of people in various cities of IPL field. It took more than six months for me to collect these evidences. He explained about the problem of IPL issues in the court.

“PT no. 34/17.” The reader read the case number.

Surrounded by various lawyers, Thilip greeted the judge and stood up. The Public Prosecutor Joseph Veerendra stood up and gave his arguments: “My lord. Already there are lots of problems in our country. We starve for food and farmers are suffering a lot. Alongside this, IPL games and auctions on the other hand. Doesn’t people know how much loss is going on in our country? Can we survive without farmers?”

“Greetings my lord. I object the statements of Joseph Veerendra. The problem with his argument is, you must understand where you confuse with this. A farmer is difficult in agriculture. Why you are watching cinema, etc., etc? It’s nonsense. A Tamil actor is saying about Agriculture and ISRO. It’s ridiculous. If you have guts, ask car company to close. Ask New Generation and Suriya TV to close. Your talks are silly. Cinema and Cricket is for entertainment. But think about the life of other youngsters.”

Pausing for a while, he continued: “You all should know about the hidden truth in IPL. This Indian Premier League gives a profit of 30,000 crores. Do you know this or not?”

Giving some evidences to the court, Thilip added: “Within 4 months, this could directly and indirectly give 20,000 employment opportunities to our people. This is an indirect and direct income for the government, giving 1500 crores. Why all are saying no to this? I seriously don’t know. Then, another important thing. You thought that cricket belongs to government. It belongs to private. First understand about these games. It’s like a company.”

“So, you come to say that, we doesn’t understand about these games. Am I right sir?” The Public prosecutor asked Thilip.

Taking some break, Thilip replied: “Of course sir. Let’s assume there’s no cricket in past. I found this cricket. I open a cricket company in a country. In each and every country, I would say like this “Pakistan company” “Chinese company” and “Indian Company.” In every country, I would name like this in the country’s name to make this game clash.”

As the Public prosecutor listened, he continued: “Don’t shout as this is private company. Because of government, everything was spoilt. The total budget of this is 1943 crores. Don’t make politics behind this. Unorganized sectors such as juice sellers, vendors and few more need to earn money. People would manage to make a living. Cinema industry is unnecessarily interfering in politics and people’s life. Please don’t make unnecessary statements.”

“Objection my lord. I don’t know what Thilip comes to say with this term “Unnecessary statements.” So, doesn’t cinema industry have their freedom to express the statements on societal issues in this country sir? Is this what we call as democracy?” asked Joseph

“Sir. Everyone have their own freedom of expression including the common man. But, one shouldn’t tweet something nonsense. Music directors will put something ridiculous and goes for Disco recording. What does they all know about IPL?”

The Public prosecutor doesn’t say anything for this. He remained quiet. While Thilip continued his arguments.

“Then, cinema people can ask about Cauvery Water disputes. Nothing wrong. They have their rights to fight. But, they don’t need to interfere in unnecessary things. It’s good if they stop showcasing their arrogance. I said about the importance of employment and further, said about the hypocrisy of film actors and politics. A ruling party gave promise in 1960 to develop Cauvery. They now want us to ask film actors. Why should we ask film actors my lord?”

“Objection my lord. This lawyer is trying to deviate the topic by attacking the then ruling party of 1960!” The Public prosecutor said and added: “He is keen to attack the film actors and celebrities. I wonder why is he doing so!”

Submitting the evidences of promise given by ruling party in 1960’s, Thilip questioned the court: “Whom should we ask about the Cauvery development? We can’t ask to IJP and the then ruling party too. People should question the then ruling party my lord. The main motive of these people is that, Tamilnadu political parties shouldn’t be questioned. Here there are people like: K. Manavalan, Rajmurugan, Veerapandian and Mani, who speaks about Periyar Ideologies and Dravidian model for the past 50 years.”

The Public Prosecutor objected his statements and threatened Thilip to be issued with red card for his speech against Periyar and Dravidian Model. However, Thilip laughed and submitted evidences of various organizations in the name of Periyar.

“Look at this my lord. These big men have various organizations such as: Periyar Association and Tamizhaga Munnetra Kazhagam, which have the primary motive to burn vans and vehicles, whenever there’s a plan for development in Indian nation. Since, I spoke several things against Cinema, Film actors and the dirty politics in the state, I got strong support from IJP(Indian Janata Party) leaders such as H. Raja Sharma, Kiran K. Swamy, Monish Pandey and few more people. But, I don’t say that I am supportive to IJP. My only motive is to create awareness about IPL. Thank you my lord.” A few minutes later, the Judge dismissed the case against IPL, angering the Public Prosecutor and politicians.

ANNA NAGAR, MADURAI

6:30 PM

One day Journalist Kiran K. Swamy came to Thilip’s house for an interaction. He asked Thilip: “Sir. Didn’t you receive countless death threats from the Dravidian leaders such as Richard Raghavan, his son Joseph Richard Raghavan and Ilamaaran?”

They were drinking coffee while sitting inside the house, where they were looking for the latest updates and developments in the state. Turning back at him, Thilip asked him about Anna Politkovskaya. Kiran K. Swamy looked here and there. While, he replied: “Kiran. She worked for the relatively small circulation Russian newspaper. Novaya Gazeta and her reports about war, terrorism and their attendant human rights abuses had earned her countless death threats. But, she continued her service without any fears.” Kiran K. Swamy now understood what he tried to tell him. Now, Kiran asked: “So, you would follow the ethics and responsibilities. Am I right?”

Tamilnadu government filed over 70 defamation cases on media. Journalists covering politics in Tamil Nadu often came across political rivals of the corrupt parties harping on the accusation that the party indulges in “scientific corruption.”

Thilip met the retired Supreme Court Justice Ranjit Singh Sarkaria in New Delhi, so that he could collect some information related to the then ruling party of 1960’s. He said: “Thilip. Have you heard about Emergency act by the then Prime Minister Indira Gandhi?”

“Yes sir. I have little studied about Emergency.” Ranjit Singh smiled and said: “I was appointed to probe graft allegations against the then Muthuvel Raghavanidhi government.”

1971 TO 1976:

The Sarkaria Commission was constituted in February 1976, soon after the Raghavanidhi government was dismissed by the Indira Gandhi dispensation. It is said that Justice Sarkaria was so taken in by the ingenuity with which public funds were embezzled.

PRESENT:

At present, Thilip asked Ranjit Singh: “Sir. Is there any record in the public domain of you?” He laughed and said, “There appears to be no record in the public domain of me having used the term Scientific corruption.” Since, the 1980’s political party often targeted 1960’s party on this score, I once asked a second-line leader Radhakrishnan about the same. The leader is now a minister.

“Sir. How you could explain about scientific corruption to the common man?” After thinking for sometime, he replied: “Sir. It could be probably the period of 1991-1996. It was under Krishnalalithaa regime. There was massive corruption charges against the government that had dwarfed the 1960 government’s alleged omissions and commissions.”

He further said: “Sir. If we ask our cadres to steal groundnuts from a field, they would go and uproot the plant, leaving behind a trail of evidence. But if you ask the 1960 guys to do the same, they will dig below the field and remove only the groundnuts, leaving the plant in it’s place. This is what we call ‘scientific corruption.’” In as much as the remark evoked laughter, many politicians, irrespective of their party affiliation, have their own way of getting things done under the table.

A very few days later, he filed case against the prominent leader M. Raghavanidhi by telling him as “Father of Corruption” in the Supreme court. Once again, it’s Joseph Veerendra who comes in support of Raghavanidhi.

“Petition no. 18/45” The reader read the case number. Before that, everyone greeted the judge.

“My lord. In recent days, there were lot of stories about Raghavanidhi. There were lot of praises…Like ‘The Leader’ who set up the foundation to a well built Tamil Nadu was Raghavanidhi. A lot of stories saying how he did it and why he did it. Especially the workers. Let me start with an interesting story that I heard.” Thilip puts forward his argument in the court. While, the Public prosecutor laughed and said: “My Lord. I hope this lawyer is going to bring in a story from cinema.”

“That’s your assumption Mr. Joseph. Now, I hope it would be apt point to start. So the story goes like this…Once upon a time when Raghavanidhi was the Chief Minister…there was power outage in his office. During that power outage he lit up a candle and completed his office work. Then he put off that candle and lit up another one and proceeded to write a letter. His assistant asked, “Sir, you could have used the candle that you had already lit up.” Pausing a while, he continued: “Why did you use a new one? Why put that off and lit up a new one?” At the moment Raghavanidhi replied, “The candle that I put off was bought out of government’s fund. I had to write a letter as a part of government’s duty hence I used that. This candle I lit up is for my personal work. Hence I am using this candle stick.” That’s the explanation he gave. So what we take away from this story of justice is that, how a Chief Minister should function. How a CM must spend his own money and how a CM must use people’s money. That is where to spend people’s money i.e. the government’s money…and where to spend one’s own money. So it is said that Raghavanidhi was a great leader who showed how to do this. Okay? But please do not believe in such rubbish rumors.”

“Objection my lord.” The Public prosecutor said to which the judge said: “Objection over-ruled.” Now, Thilip continued his arguments.

“Such stories are being shamelessly told from ages and all Tamil parties do the same. So please don’t let it give you Goosebumps and provoke you. My intentions are not at all to spread wrong information and put him in a bad spotlight. Hence, I’ll get to the matter at hand after I tell you one more thing and that is I’ll be sharing a lot of information here. I specifically request students and youngsters to please dig about it and verify.”

Pausing a while, Thilip continued: “Once you find out and verify the details that I share here are true then you can come to a conclusion if what I am telling is whether right or wrong. Let’s go into the topic. Since 1947, for 73 years, Tamil Nadu has been ruled by many Chief Ministers. Out of these, for 19 years, Raghavanidhi ruled as the Chief Minister. Get this right, he has been the Chief Minister for 19 years. In this, the early period where Raghavanidhi rule after Anna’s demise…If we subtract those years, he has been the CM on his own for 17 years. He was completely in charge for 3 terms. Okay? Once he was the part of minority government. Let’s count it separately. In order to read about all his tenure you will have to study these years…when he was the CM and you can find it in the Internet.”

“So, you collected all these information from internet. Am I right sir?” The Public Prosecutor asked him by objecting his statements to which, Thilip said: “Not only through Internet Joseph sir. But also from various people, who worked in government sectors and reputed places.”

Showing some important documents, Thilip said: “This is the five terms. So called as “Five times Chief Minister” but this is not the case. First time he became the Chief Minister after Anna’s demise. Second time he formed the government along with a famous person and then cut him out of it. Third time, he sat outside for 13 years. Another political party at the same time, broke in to two halves and he came to power. In 1996, as a film actor showed his support for them it. It was almost the time when his party was on the brink of destruction. But a film actor worked for them and Vaiko stepped out. An almost death party was rescued. Then, the minority government. Now the way how Raghavanidhi’s rule came to existence and how he made his political moves…if we have a theory then they will have theirs. Got it? Let’s not get into all that politics detail. He formed the government and became the CM. After he formed the government, now coming back to the “Candle light story” they spread Did he really live up to that? Did he lead such a life? Was he such a great martyr?”

Taking some more evidences from the bag, Thilip submitted them to the court. Now, he continued: “Let’s focus on how he ran the government and observe that. So what we must do first in order to do that is. So what we must do first in order to do that is. All the leaders worldwide who were in power or who ruled. Let’s look into their wealth and assets. Why? Let me tell you. He is the American president for 2 terms, George W. Bush. Then Obama, he too was the American president for 2 terms. If you look into their assets and wealth, it is approximately 40 to 45 crores. Then in our rupees equivalent, their family wealth amasses to 40-45 crores. Next, most important, you must not just take America into consideration. You must consider all the countries. Not just the developed but also developing countries. For example: Let it be Singapore, Australia, Germany or the developed nation of Canada. Look at their wealth and assets of the leaders, who ruled there. So that, you could find out how they earned money for their family and friends using power. So that, you could know are they really honest? It is said Raghavanidhi indulges in “Dynasty Politics.” It’s not so. In this world, dynasty politics are common. Compare his family wealth and the other politician’s wealth in world nations. We will come to know whether Candle light story is true or not. First we must know this complete family details of Raghavanidhi. So Muthuvel Anjugam, his parents. How many children they had? What’s the size of their family and their status? You must know this. Our ex-CM had two sisters. And the value of assets and their property of those children. These are all we will require to calculate the wealth of this family. Hope you get it. In that case, guess where you must begin. You must begin from Gopalapuram. Raghavanidhi alone doesn’t have wealth in Gopalapuram. As far to my knowledge goes, approximately 12 houses each worth around 10-15 crores.” I said numerous evidences against the party of Raghavanidhi. Now, I can say he is the “Father of Corruption.”

“Objection my lord. I severely object the statements made by the lawyer!” However, his objection gets overruled.

“Not only me. Even people call him like such. But, why people call him as such?” Pausing, he continued: “His sons have crores of amount and farmlands. The now President Richard Raghavan(His first son), his son Joseph Richard Raghavan, their cousin Illamaran Raghavan and the entire family have amassed huge wealth in the name of “Saving Tamil people” and “Anti-Hindi sentiments.” Students, please understand, a good ruler…That is what happens when you have a good leader is power, it will result in two important outcomes. They are two: They will strive their best to bring you all in equal opportunities and They will strive to get you the recognition for your genuine hard work. These are the 2 most important attributes a nation must possess. And the people in the power must strive for it. Only then a nation will develop and prosper.”

After hearing this, Supreme court orders the government and police officers to reopen the 2G and 4G scams, done by Raghava’s political party leaders and his sons. Not only this case, for the next one and a half years I have fought against several corrupt Journalists, Social Media mafia and Professional agitators in Tamilnadu. Mostly the film’s distribution rights were controlled by Raghavan brothers and the media industry too was controlled by these people. Only these people decides what should reach the people, what shouldn’t go to the people and who must be exposed.

During the free time, Thilip spoke about Salem-Chennai 8 Lane Highway project. Since, many ridiculed about PM’s Fitness video and failed to understand the tactics of Dravidian Politics. He took lots of risks to collect evidences and researched a lot regarding the social issues in India.

FEW MONTHS LATER

Few months later, a case is filed against the Demonetization act, brought by the Central Government in the Supreme Court. Here also, Thilip appeared to put forward his support for the act while, Joseph appeared for the people, who objected the act of Demonetization by Union Government. After greeting the court, the argument started in the court.

“My lord. There is a big politics behind the protests against Demonetisation of Rs. 500, Rs. 1000. But, our people were not ready to research anything about it. Not only this. Even for Citizenship Amendment Act and Kashmir Special Constitution issues. Caste Reservation needs reformation. Sabarimala is not the place for feminists. There is a controversy about Refale Jet Deal. Did our students and youngsters researched about these things?”

“Objection my lord. It’s routine for Thilip to criticize our students and youngsters. This case is about Demonetization Act. Not about youngsters!”

“I of course accept sir. It’s indeed about Demonetization. In the name of Anti-Corporate Activism and Secularism thought through Tamil movies, people forget about the reality. You know? There’s a hidden agenda of News Media. They are the most corrupt news channels in India. There are counter-terrorism, caste issues, religious riots and numerous issues in the state. What does we do? Just share the videos through Whatsapp and speak angrily. Then? We forgot these issues and move on. And the politicians will continue to loot our money and lead a luxurious lifestyle.” With evidences, Thilip managed to prove that: “Demonetization is brought in effort to block funds for illegal activities, terrorism and for religious conversion activities. That’s why many people are anger with the government.”

At this point of time, Thilip spoke against the offensive content against “Kanda Sasti Kavasam” brutally criticizing the political parties and Black groups through his video and published it in Youtube. As a result of this, police arrested him due to which, there were widespread protests from Indian Janatha Party and the TN people to release him. Unable to do anything, the ruling party released him from police custody, without filing any charges.

PRESENT:

ANNA NAGAR, MADURAI:

At present, Rathnavel Pandey and Kiran K. Swamy came to meet Thilip Krishna, as he returned home from Pondicherry. In the house, Rathnavel Pandey said: “If something is spoken against Muslims and Christians, there are political parties to question the people and arrest them. But, if someone supports Hinduism, they are arrested. What kind of hypocrisy is this?”

Thilip sits quiet by closing his eyes. While, Kiran K. Swamy said: “For the past 50 years, we face humiliation in the name of Secularism, etc. Poor people get enthralled to money and alcohol. What could we do sir?”

Thilip opened his eyes and said: “Why no one is there sir? Didn’t IJP came forward to support and help our Hindu? Believe me. Everything will change sooner.” Very few months later, Thilip contested rigorously for PM’s party and spoke in favor of Hindus and atrocities, committed against them. Mostly Thilip collected evidences against the two political parties, their hypocrite politics and their fraudulent activities with the support of several people.

2020-2021:

In this mission, Ex-DSP Vimal joined him. They both created an awareness about Corona Lockdown and the impact of the virus. The two exposed about China’s mastermind plan in creating the virus. They further said about the problems, that the people could face in 21 days lockdown and the challenges, our country could probably face. After several months, lockdown was relieved in September. At that time, Thilip further asked five questions to Richard Raghavan during a speech in the conference hall of IJP, much to the agitation of Richard Raghavan. The people tried to meet him and threaten, to no avail due to the support of Vimal.

Henceforth, Richard meets CM Mettur Rangasamy, to whom he said about the upcoming threats due to Vimal and Richard Raghavan. Mettur Rangasamy is already angry with Vimal for creating an awareness about the importance of organic farming in Ariyalur, a residence in Karur district. Henceforth, he met Minister Mukesh Balaji, to whom he said: “Hey. If Vimal emerged in the politics, then we can’t loot resources and fool the people. Do something da.” The latter meets an opposition party leader Anjali Mani, who tried to create a mess in Vimal’s farming land. But, to no avail. Due to the threats, Vimal seeks the help of Thilip and Prime Minister.

They agreed to solve the problems. At the same time, PM called Vimal for an meeting with him in New Delhi. There, PM requests Vimal to take charge as the leader of Tamil Nadu. Since, he is a police officer. So that, he could carefully investigate about the contemporary issues in the state. Initially, some leaders in the party felt upset. Later, they accepts his decision. This information reached Thilip, Kiran K. Swamy and Rathnavel Pandey. Although happier Kiran K. Swamy and Rathnavel Pandey suspects something wrong. Vimal agreed to this and the IJP people decides to choose a right point of time to make him the President of IJP and opposition leader of Tamil Nadu.

Through some investigations, Vimal, Rathnavel Pandey and Kiran K. Swamy are shocked to know that Thilip was the one, who suggested the idea of making Vimal as “The president of Tamilnadu’s Indian Janatha Party.” It was he who transferred Isaipriya Rajendran to Telangana as the Governor. These news reached as a fire to Richard Raghavan’s political party as well as in the ruling party by their media friends, who were investigating about Thilip’s details.

Kiran asked Thilip, “Why are you doing these things da? For your own cause or for people’s cause?” Silent for a while, Thilip takes them inside the secret room, which he didn’t open for the past three years. He showed the photo of his wife Swetha and said: “Do you remember who she is?”

“Swetha Ravishankar right! She was an attorney general of Tamil Nadu, questioning about corruption in Tamil Nadu and other issues.” Kiran K. Swamy said to Thilip, to which he said: “She is not only the Attorney general. But, also my wife.” Now, Rathnavel said: “I have suspicions whether she died due to accident or is it a murder?”

During the interrogation with him, Kiran finds out his IPS cadre details, police uniform and Law books. They confronts him. Thilip tells them what happened before few years back in 2015 and 2016.

FEW YEARS BACK:

2014-2016:

After studying Political science and lawyer course, Thilip applied for UPSC Examinations. After completing the UPSC examinations, he got a chance to join IAS, which he refused and said, “He prefer to join IPS. So that, he could reform the criminals and change this wicked society from the clutches of corruption and social issues.” But, everything was opposite to him. Police worked for the government as puppets and the law, which Thilip believed in had betrayed him.

Thilip was the ASP of Mumbai, where he encountered several mafia leaders, indulging in Drugs trafficking. Eventually, he was transferred to Tamil Nadu’s Madurai region, where he investigated about 2G Scam issues and 4G scam against Raghava’s political party leaders. His wife Swetha helped him in this purpose. However, the ruling party supported the opposition due to which, Thilip had been called to compromise the case. There, Thilip humiliated Joseph Richard Raghavan by slapping him left and right, in front of the other political leaders.

Humiliated, he falsely charged him with a defamation case of slapping a man from Scheduled caste and subjected him into brutal tortures inside the prison. When coming out of the court, Joseph said to him: “Don’t worry brother. It’s all just the beginning. You have lots to meet in future.” Swetha promised to bail him out at any cost. However, she died within few days in road accident. Some weeks later, Thilip gets released from the prison for her last rites and funeral.

When looking at her, he found some injury marks in Swetha’s neck, abdomen and her chin. Thilip suspected her death and was completely devastated. He remained awry for several days. His associates Pranitha and Vikash Krish were also ex-police officers, who informed him that Swetha was gang-raped by Joseph and his men. They put an 80 kilogram stone in her head and killed her. The case was completely fabricated with the help of senior officers in the department.

PRESENT:

Vikash Krish and Pranitha now came and meets Thilip. They said: “Thilip. As per your plans, we informed Raghavan’s associates that Vimal had been made as the President of Indian Janatha Party. They have bigger plans in future to grab power in TN.”

Thilip personally mailed the Prime Minister to give Y-security and Z-security categorized protection for Vimal. Since, Raghavan and his men won’t hesitate to murder their rivalries in politics. He turned to Kiran K. Swamy and Rathnavel Pandey, who are in shock. He asked them: “So what is Justice?”

Rathnavel Pandey and Kiran K. Swamy bowed their heads down. While, Thilip said: “Justice is for sale. I learned this when someone you love becomes a memory, the memory becomes a treasure. We understand death only after it has placed it’s hands on someone we love. I lost Swetha like such.” The two consoled him and asked him to continue this mission.

The same time, Joseph Richard Raghavan and his father Richard Raghavan signs for the upcoming 2021 elections opposite the now ruling party and Indian Janatha Party as the nominee. When Richard and his son Joseph are going in the car, Thilip called them and said: “I think I became popular in High court and Supreme court by taking up your cases and atrocities.”

“What do you want da?” Richard asked him to which, Thilip said: “Hey. I doesn’t want anything. I just called you to warn about the upcoming problems for you all. You said something in the court during my arrest, right. Do you remember?”

They doesn’t remember this to which Thilip mocked at them: “You both are waste fellows. Waste no. 1 and Waste no. 2. How could you remember? I’ll say: It’s not the end. It is just the beginning. You have lots to see in the future. The decline of family emperor in Tamilnadu.” Pausing for a while, he added: “I bet you. We and our people would chase you out. That too not so easily. We would make you all to run naked and nude.” Thilip hanged the phone call and looked at the photo of Swetha, to light a candle at her.

Meanwhile, Vimal takes the oath as President of IJP. He signed the agreement. The party members and people invite him gladly. While, Mukesh Balaji joined Raghava’s party and other people are upset and sad about the emergence of a new-strong opposition party leader pitting up against them.

“Whatever happens or whoever comes, try to damage their image and stop them from becoming popular with TN People.” Joseph Richard Raghavan ordered the Media channels and his party members. He sits in agony and frustration.

While, Thilip gets ready to fight for another case of a girl, who have been gang-raped and killed by four rich guys.

EPILOGUE:

Suriya TV:

Suriya TV Network runs the most popular Tamil language satellite television channels in the world. It was started on 14 April 1992 by Kalanidhi Maran. At one point, Suriya TV was the most viewed entertainment channel in India, as per BARC report.

The channel has the history of corruptionsexual harassmentcriminal intimidationpaid newsfraudmoney launderingextortionblackmailingillicit-black-money etc. Few of them are listed below:

1.  April 2015: In  Aircel-Maxis case Rs. 742 Crore worth of property of Sun TV and owner Illamaran was impounded by the Enforcement Directorate for money laundering based on a CBI report.

2.  July 2011: Suriya TV COO Hansraj Saxena was arrested thrice for various cases of extortion and blackmailing.

3.  After one of his arrests, Hansraj Saxena confessed on a written affidavit and on TV that the channel had created the morphed video of His Holiness Paramahamsa Nithyananda and an actress for the purpose of extortion.

4.  Jan 2015: The next COO C Praveen, was also arrested on sexual harassment complaints filed by a former staff of the television network.

5.  By far the biggest known crime done by the channel was its involvement in 2G spectrum scam which resulted in a loss of Rs. 17,60,00,00,00,000/- (roughly equivalent to $30 Billion USD )  to the public exchequer.

Hansraj Saxena was arrested thrice for various cases of extortion and blackmailing.

Two editors were arrested for ‘Rs 100-crore extortion bid’ (equivalent to $15 million USD)

Nov 28, 2012: Delhi Police’s crime branch arrested two editors on Tuesday, who were accused of extortion. The editors were accused of trying to extort Rs 100 crore worth of advertisements from the company of the complainant in return for dropping stories.

March 18, 2014: A Rs. 100-crore defamation case was slapped, by famous Indian cricketer Mr. M.S. Dhoni, for attacks on his reputation.

NDTV:

Biased and corrupt, anti-national news channel, NDTV, had already a controversial history of disclosing the location of Indian Army along with artillery to Pakistani forces during times of war. New Delhi Television – NDTV was a leading anti-national news channel in India. NDTV viewership has fallen below 2% especially after their anti-national stand. NDTV alleged that the TV ratings had been manipulated and sued the country’s only television audience measurement company. Even in spite of such boycott by the Indian household, one wonders how still the company continues to flourish. The secret is revealed by studying the financial frauds and scams done by the channel.

NDTV Frauds:
In the book ‘NDTV Frauds’, author Sree Iyer, exposed how NDTV was actually one of the the most corrupt media house in Indian history.
