The BJP has shared a viral video alleging that TVK leader Veera, Mambakkam Panchayat President and Chengalpattu East District Joint Secretary, accepted a ₹1.3 lakh bribe from a road contractor. The BJP claims the payment was made to clear pending contractor bills, with part of the amount allegedly transferred via Google Pay before the remaining cash was handed over in Veera's office. The controversy comes just days after Tamil Nadu Chief Minister C. Joseph Vijay delivered a strong anti-corruption speech, urging people not to pay bribes and vowing action against corruption.
