“DMK clarifies rationale behind ₹509 crore received from Future Gaming in Electoral Bonds, draws on insights from The News Minute editor; the reasoning may not fully satisfy critics” #politics

The controversy surrounding the DMK receiving ₹509 crore from Future Gaming in Electoral Bonds continues to escalate as the party attempts to justify the hefty donation. According to a report by Opindia, DMK spokesperson Saravanan Annadurai argued that the ruling party in Tamil Nadu does not control investigating agencies like the Enforcement Directorate (ED), Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI), or the Income Tax Department.

In response to the allegations, Annadurai stated, “DMK does not control ED, CBI or Income Tax depts. They are under the control of BJP. DMK does not run extortion rackets.” This statement comes after the Election Commission data revealed the significant sum received by DMK from Future Gaming, sparking political furore and speculation.

Despite the party’s attempts to offer a logical explanation, questions surrounding the transparency and legality of the donation persist. The opposition has raised concerns about the potential influence of such large contributions on political dynamics and governance.
