- He questions minister Jeyakumar if he is ready to punish the real culprits behind the TNPSC exam
- The daily news on TNPSC fraud is creating panic, but the government or the ministers do not care anything about it
- They are only trying to create a scene that proper and truthful investigation is carried on against the TNPSC exam
- The main fraud of TNPSC is only in Group 1 exams which the government is trying its best to cover it up
- CBCID inspector Senguttuvan in 2017 has submitted his report to High Court wherein he has mentioned that, out of the 74 selected in Group 1, 64 are only from one TNPSC training center
- Even after High Court ordering the government to investigate in the matter, three judges have been transferred, and three investigating officers have also been transferred but still not completed the investigation.

- The High Court should investigate the issue and bring to justice all the accused
TNPSC fraud is becoming beyond anyone's imagination. And now with Jeyakumar under police investigation for the next six days and the High Court to speed up the Group 1 fraud cases, it will bring a lot of more hidden ugly truth to the public soon.
