"Do not use this as a political forum," Chief Justice Chandrachud cautioned the petitioner while refusing to hear the plea.
The chief minister said, “He (PTR) himself has given two detailed explanations on this matter. I have time only to do duties for my people. I do not want to talk anything further on this and give publicity to those indulging in cheap politics.”
The Tamil Nadu Leader of Opposition told reporters in New Delhi that since the matter involved state Finance Minister Palanivel Thiaga Rajan (PTR), the issue cannot be ignored
The audio clip, purportedly a recording of the finance minister's interaction with journalists, alleges that a DMK minister and one of his relatives had amassed huge ill-gotten wealth.
The Minister alleged that the clip was a ruse to paint him as a whistleblower against his own party.
