Bribing itself is not easy. It's too painful. One has to go through this suffering to understand this. Let me share some details around how the DTCP process works. This may hopefully help many who seem to have no idea of how these corruption networks work.
If @TVKVijayHQ wanted to make money, it was too easy for him to redirect the money flow towards his own people now. Instead, he chose to openly fight this out. I, one of the victims, have a sole responsibility to support this by coming out with the details. I really hope he is successful in this mission.
Many schools still run without full DTCP approval/compliance. The more they are not compliant, the more money can be extracted on continuous basis. No incentive for schools to come out and be compliant. Instead, the opposite is true.
In our school, we had a goal of making it 100% compliant in all aspects and started the DTCP approval process. I was given the responsibility to take care of the process.
I've interviewed 4 agents/middlemen over 6 months to decide who we go with. We've gotten offers from 80 Rs to 110 Rs per sqft. Most often it falls in the higher end of this spectrum based on experiences I gathered from experienced folks who have gone through this process.
Price alone is not sufficient to pick the agent. We need to evaluate the agent's reach to power, his experience in handling previous schools, etc. Finally, picked one to pay 65L total.
Building approval is finally given by the local rural/town authority. But the process is longer. The application has to go through the approval process first to the district office.
If the built-up area is larger, then the application is forwarded to the Chennai head office for technical concurrence. This is where the famous PF is collected.
I am still puzzled why a Chennai office is more qualified than a district office to verify the so-called technical details. Can't a district-level officer verify as per the norms? I know this is a novice question, as we know why things are structured this way.
We give bribe payment first—only way to make progress in this long application process. Paid full (total of 65L) and the application is stuck for months in the Chennai office. Can't rely on the agent for everything, as the stake is too high for me. Money was given, no response from gov, I need to answer other trustees.
After several months of waiting, I had to travel to Chennai and stayed in a hotel for a few days to get an appointment with the Chennai head.
I usually wear a dhoti. This makes it even more easy to ill-treat. Anyways, I waited patiently as I lost sleep for many days due to this.
Finally, about 2 minutes time to meet the GOD. I've begged explaining the financial state of the school, etc. Only one question was asked: "Was formality of #name# completed?" I said Yes. He asked me to leave after making a note.
This is how blatant the corruption network was. Officers behaved like gods as their political managers sought help from them to trace if money was properly paid for each application.
It was a hopeless time. I was fed up and never voted this time. Never imagined Tamilnadu people had a silent revolution in ballot boxes this time. hats off to them.
What I learned in the process is - money can travel alone to chennai for a fee - 3% through local agents deployed for this. This way, we avoid of the risk of carrying cash. 😢
As a keen political observer, I thought 1996-2001 and 2001-2006 were decent periods on corruption. After that, hell broke I guess. It was a non-stop nightmare until Mr. Vijay struck down this trend. Somehow I feel very positive that 2026-2036 will be great for TN and has a potential of truly a model state for India. I beg Mr. Vijay not giving up this "corruption free state of TN" mission easily.
@imrajmohan@svembu@sekar_vembu If this process is decentralized/localized, the cost of this bribe may be very less even if we can't eradicate the corruption totally.
பழி வாங்கும் நடவடிக்கையாம்..!
அறப்போர் 2022ம் ஆண்டு கொடுத்த புகாரை விசாரிக்காமல் தலையணைக்கு அடியில் வைத்து நன்றாக உறங்கி விட்டு இப்போ ஆட்சி மாற்றம் நடந்த பிறகு FIR போட்டால் அது பழி வாங்கும் நடவடிக்கையா மிஸ்டர் வேலு? அப்போ ஊழல் புகாரை விசாரிக்காமல் ஒளித்து வைத்து ஊழல்வாதிகளை பாதுகாத்து நீங்கள் செய்த வேலைக்கு என்ன பெயர் மிஸ்டர் வேலு?
சாலையே போடவில்லை. ஆனால் சாலையை அளந்து கணக்கெடுத்து அதற்குரிய பணத்தையும் கொடுத்திருக்கிறார்கள். அதுவும் யாருக்கு கொடுத்தார்கள்? திமுகவின் முன்னாள் அமைச்சர் செந்தில் பாலாஜி அவர்களுக்கு நெருக்கமான நண்பர் என்று சொல்லப்படுகிற சங்கர் ஆனந்த் என்ற ஒப்பந்ததாரருக்கு கொடுத்திருக்கிறார்கள். அவரும் அதை வாங்கி ஏப்பம் விட்டிருக்கிறார். அந்த வருடத்தில் 110 கோடிக்கு சாலை போட்டிருக்கிறாராம் இந்த சங்கர் ஆனந்த். அப்போ இன்னும் எத்தனை கோடிகளை அவர் ஏப்பம் விட்டாரோ?
பணத்தை கொடுத்த அரசு அதிகாரிகளை சஸ்பெண்ட் செய்த நீங்கள் அதை வாங்கிய சங்கர் ஆனந்த் மீது என்ன நடவடிக்கை எடுத்தீர்கள் மிஸ்டர் வேலு? FIR கூட போடவில்லை. ஆனால் அதற்கு பதிலாக போடாத சாலையை போட இரவோடு இரவாக காவல்துறையை குவித்து சர்க்கஸ் காட்டி இருக்கிறீர்கள். அதாவது ஊழல் ஆதாரத்தை அழிக்க முயற்சி செய்திருக்கிறீர்கள்.
நடந்த இத்தனை விஷயங்களும் உங்களுக்கு தெரியாமல் நடந்ததா? உங்கள் துறையில் நடந்த எந்த விஷயங்களும் உங்களுக்கு தெரியாத அளவிற்கு கையாலாகாத அமைச்சராகவா இருந்தீர்கள் மிஸ்டர் வேலு?
இப்படிப்பட்ட கையாலாகாத அமைச்சரை நம்பியா மாநில நெடுஞ்சாலைத்துறையை கொடுத்தீர்கள் மிஸ்டர் ஸ்டாலின்?
ஊழலில் சம்பந்தப்பட்டது ஒரு அதிமுக அமைச்சராக இருந்திருந்தால் ஒரு FIR போட்டு டீல் பேசி வைத்திலிங்கம் போல திமுகவில் இணைத்திருக்கலாம். இணைத்த வேகத்தில் அந்த FIRஐ கொஞ்சம் கூட கூச்சமில்லாமல் ரத்து செய்திருக்கலாம். அப்படித்தானே மிஸ்டர் ஸ்டாலின்?
இந்த புகாரில் FIR வெறும் ஆரம்ப புள்ளி தான். விரைவாக விசாரணை நடத்தி குற்றப்பத்திரிக்கை தாக்கல் செய்து குற்றவாளிகளுக்கு கடுமையான தண்டனை வாங்கி தருவதே சாதனை. அந்த சாதனையை விஜய் அரசு செய்யுமா?

Tamil Nadu is sometimes unfairly accused of having separatist thinking. As I've said before, in our state, both regional and national identity are equally important. This is often not understood in the right spirit, leading to a false impression.
I don't know how many of you have seen Tamil Nadu's official emblem.
Not only does it feature the Indian flag, but it also includes a gopuram (Hindu temple tower). The temple represented here is the Srivilliputhur Andal Temple.
I checked thoroughly. Tamil Nadu is the only state whose emblem or seal includes:
Indian flag
Hindu temple (gopuram)
The ancient Vedic truth inscribed (Satyameva Jayate / Vaymaiye Vellum)
Many good things about Tamil Nadu are still largely unknown to rest of India.
Dear @AshwiniVaishnaw ji
I propose that IRCTC introduce the following:
- Do not allot the exact seat while booking (only show CNF or WL)
- Allot final seats 12 hours before chart is prepared and give priority for Senior Citizens & Ladies with Children.
In this way, algorithm can allocate lower berths for Seniors & can take latest data just before chart preparation. Seniors need not climb the top berths.
Hope this is considered. I request my audience to amplify this until some action is taken.

The DMK ecosystem is attacking me that the school issue I reported was a lie I concocted to help the TVK government. Let me state the facts.
We run two rural schools, both free NIOS schools under the Kalaivani Kalvi Maiyam umbrella, one in rural Tenkasi and the other in rural Theni.
The Theni school was originally started and run by a retired IPS officer, a honest and upright man. He built very nice facilities but had to shut down his CBSE school because the state government demanded too much money to issue the NOC. He told me that as a honest retired officer he did not have the money to pay and they would not issue the NOC otherwise.
He urged us to take over his trust so we could run our free NIOS school in the premises. That is how we started our NIOS school in Theni.
Unlike in Tenkasi, where I live, the Theni school faced occasional harassment from the DMK government because we did not have a state government registration, so we tried getting state government approval again (this time for the state board) and that of course would also cost money. So it was in a limbo.
Meanwhile in Tenkasi we wanted to build new school facilities (we were operating in make-shift facilities, the ones that came in frequent photos) and we applied for DTCP approval to construct the new buildings. Everyone who knows DTCP in our state knows what kind of corruption happened there under the DMK.
We waited patiently for DTCP approval for the new school buildings but the approval never came as long as the DMK was in power. The approval came automatically once the government changed.
It is this DTCP approval that I posted about in X. I want to once again appreciate the refreshing change.
Not only did the approvals come, government people told us not to pay money to anyone for any approvals. I have to appreciate this in public, having endured what we had endured before.
This is the "lie" that DMK wants to attack me on.
I do not need their certificate on my character.
They can examine their conscience and ask why a technology nerd like me who is mostly immersed in code would post these.
If they think I would back down by their vile personal attacks because I am a Brahmin or TVK Stooge or Sanghi or whatever, I will tell them this: unlike you dynasts I grew up with nothing. I studied in Tamil medium schools. I know how to live on nothing. I have dedicated the remainder of my life to make Bharat self reliant in technology while reviving our rural areas, the soul of our eternal sanatana civilization.
I will not be intimidated by their attacks. I am unafraid of death, why would I be afraid of the mere DMK?
And if they had any conscience they can return the money they looted (they know there they keep it) and then they can attack my character.
I will now go back to optimizing the code of our compiler!
A convention centre named "Kalaignar Arivalayam" being built at a cost Rs. 550 Crores near Mahabalipuram.
Public Works Department of TN Government is building it. Former Chief Minister @mkstalin inspected the ongoing works two days ago - in what capacity - I do not know.
A news report in @the_hindu says that the project is waiting for 7.62 acres of land to be "transferred" by @tnhrcedept -
it is obvious that these lands would either be Hindu Temple lands or Hindu Endowments' lands since the misfits in @tnhrcedept are aware that the Fraud Department has zero lands to offer or transfer. It seems @the_hindu newspaper is not aware.
HR&CE Minister @RameshOffcl should take immediate steps to prevent alienation/transfer of lands of Hindu institutions for the purposes of convention hall named after anti-Hindu Karunanidhi.
After all, the lands are said to be required for entrance arch, landscaping etc. of the convention hall. Not at all essential.
Hindu Temple/Endowment lands are NOT sitting ducks to be taken by misfits, frauds and the corrupt.
As a 7 Judge Bench of Hon'ble Supreme Court said in 1954 they are generally INALIENABLE.
Makkal Saatchi is a great initiative. It is a work in progress. The founder, Deepak (Deepak Sivakumar), is more than willing to hand over everything to the state.
Deepak is ready to work with the government to make it foolproof and authentic. That said, some people are misusing it to settle political scores.
He says:
“Clear disclaimer, privacy policy, and terms are already added. The main purpose is to expose corruption patterns- repeated departments, locations, methods, and amounts -not to shame anyone unfairly.
Because the platform is anonymous, anyone can submit anything. That risk exists. That is exactly why fake, repeated, personal, political, or unverifiable complaints are filtered or removed whenever identified.”
As a concept, Makkal Saatchi is widely welcomed by the public. What is required is fine tuning, making the system more robust, expanding it to a mobile app, and, most importantly, enabling complaints directly through WhatsApp.
Though government officials are taking action on complaints received through this portal, it is unclear why no one in the government is coordinating with Deepak to make this Tamil Nadu government’s official bribe reporting portal.
Deepak and many other technically skilled people would be more than happy to assist the state government in this regard.
I am aware that the government’s hands are full with hundreds of issues to address. But this is equally important and should not get lost in the din.
தமிழ்நாடு அம்மோனியா கசிவில் இறந்ததாக கருதப்பட்ட பெண் ஆந்திராவில் உயிரோடு இருந்ததால் அதிகாரிகள் அதிர்ச்சி.
ஆந்திராவில் பணி புரியும் ஓடிஷாவை சேர்ந்த பூர்ணிமா ஜூவாங்கா'வின் ஆதார் கார்ட்'டை தவறாக பயன்படுத்தி இங்கே இறந்த அந்த பெண்ணை பணியமர்த்தி இருக்கிறார்கள்.
இப்படி பல இடங்களில் மைனர்களை கூட வேலைக்கு அமர்த்தி பணம் சம்பாதிக்கும் புரோக்கர் கும்பல்கள் அதிகரிப்பு.
இந்த விஷயத்தில் சிக்கியிருப்பது பூர்ணிமாவின் கணவன் ஸ்ரீகாந்த் ஜூவாங்கா. இதே வேலையாக பல இடங்களில் பலரது ஆதார் கார்ட்டை தவறாக பயன்படுத்தி வேலைக்கு ஆட்களை அமர்த்தி இருக்கிறான்.
இந்த கோர விபத்து நடக்காமல் இருந்திருந்தால் இந்த அவலம் வெளிவந்திருக்காது.
வேலை தேடி வரும் வெளிமாநிலத்தவரை சரியான முறையில் பதிவு செய்வது எவ்வளவு அவசியம் என இவர்களுக்கு வேலை வழங்கும் முதலாளிகள் முதற்கொண்டு அனைவரும் அறிந்து கொள்வது மிக அவசியம் ஆகிறது.
I saw Sridhar Vembu’s tweet about money being demanded even to run a completely free school for rural children in Tamil Nadu.
As I shared earlier, the same thing happened to my friend when he wanted to provide high quality education free of cost to children in rural Tamil Nadu.
As I said, he has now completely given up the idea and shifted his focus.
Tamil Nadu Chief Minister Vijay’s primary focus is now eliminating corruption from public life in Tamil Nadu.
This is the need of the hour.
Our rural school Kalaivani Kalvi Maiyam, which provides completely free education to rural children, faced delays getting approvals from the previous government. Of course, significant money was demanded and we were told that was the only way, even if it is a completely free school.
After @TVKVijayHQ came to power, approvals have happened quickly and automatically.
I am very happy to appreciate this positive development in our state. Thank you Thiru Vijay Avl for this refreshing change🙏
🚨MODI Strikes Back!
India has amended FCRA rules OVERNIGHT to tighten foreign funding of NGOs 🤯
— Big middle finger to US Senators pressurising India on FCRA Bill 🤣
Key Changes:
- Foreign-funded NGOs can no longer use categories like "religious education", "preservation of faith traditions", or "indigenous belief systems" for PROSELYTIZATION activities.
( Proselytization = Attempt to convert)
- Explicitly inserted “excluding proselytisation” in multiple religious categories 💥
- Fresh restrictions on foreign nationals as key functionaries.
- ULTIMATE DONORS must now be disclosed.
- Social media accounts will be SCRUTINISED👏🏼
- Mandatory field verification of fund use.
- Dormant NGOs risk losing licences.
For years, many missionary networks operated under religious/social work umbrellas. These new rules directly target that ecosystem🔥
National interest and cultural security first. What will Congress say?
@ahtreeht@moveonsoonn@RameshOffcl If you don't think it is right, they why did you ask him to show the act? You could have right away denied.. If temple funds should be used for municipal activities, why municipality is collecting tax? If you really care about people welfare, let's use church and mosque funds.
