₹17 Lakh GeM Tender Scam? 😱 6 Hours Mein Award! CM Vijay Ne 2 Officers Suspend Kiye | Thoothukudi

Added: 2026-06-01

[00:00:00]A government tender was open for only 6 hours. The award was also given the next day. And when the opposition raised questions, the tender was cancelled within a few hours.

[00:00:08]How is this work going on in the new government of Tamil Nadu? [Music] Today we know the whole story.

[00:00:14]A new history has just been created in Tamil Nadu.

[00:00:17]Josh Vijay, the famous Bollywood actor and [Music] people lovingly call him Vijay Thalapathy.

[00:00:22]He contested the elections with his party TV and won a big victory. Vijay is now the Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu. But it was not long after he took over the government that a major controversy emerged. [Music] This is about Thoothugudi district. There the government issued a tender for construction of a 3000 litre water tank which cost around ₹17 lakh. The rule says that contractors should receive tender details on May 13.

[00:00:47]But the tenders were actually opened on 18th May and that too for only 6 hours.

[00:00:53]Just 6 hours. For such a big government work, and the most surprising thing is that the tender was awarded to someone the very next day on 19th May.

[00:01:02]Seeing this, the opposition party DMK, which had lost the elections this time, directly targeted the government on TV. DMK said this is not administrative speed. This is preplanned contract politics [music]. Meaning his allegation was that it had already been decided as to who should be given the contract. The tender was just a show to complete the formalities. The allegation was that the entire process was done so quickly to prevent outside bidders and to benefit a particular [music] contractor. As soon as the allegations were made, the TV government swung into action [music] and that too quickly. Within a few hours the government cancelled the entire tender. Not only this, two government officers were immediately suspended and orders were also given to investigate the entire tender process. On one hand, some people are calling it the responsibility of the government that they accepted their mistake. Made improvements. On the other hand, the opposition says that if everything was right then why did all this happen in the first place? And this is not the first time Vijay 's new government has been embroiled in controversy [music].

[00:02:02]Some time ago, the government had appointed an astrologer as Government Spokesperson, [Music] Officer on Special Duty. When this news came out, there was a lot of criticism. People raised the question that why Jyoti was given such a big position in a modern government? Later it had to be removed. This means that this is just the beginning for Vijay's government and two major setbacks have already been suffered.

[00:02:22]Both sides have different views on this whole matter.

[00:02:25]TV's says we detected the mistake, took immediate action, suspended the officer and set up an inquiry. This is the job of an accountable government. DMK says that if the intention was right then this tender would not have been like this. I should investigate and take the matter to where it started. This controversy is a big test for the new government of Tamil Nadu.

[00:02:47]Vijay had come with the promise of a new kind of politics.

[00:02:51]Transparency, Accountability and Change.

[00:02:54]But these two early contours show.

[00:02:56]Coming to power and running the government are two different things. Only time will tell what the outcome of the investigation will be.

[00:03:01]But Tamil Nadu politics is currently in a very exciting mood [music] and if you found this video inspiring then like it, subscribe to the channel and tell us in the comments whether you think Vijay's government will be able to handle all this?
