DMK’s Participation in Central Government:

The following article describes the details of Prime Ministers of India.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Prime_Ministers_of_India

1) 2 December 1989 – 10 November 1990

2) 1 June 1996 – 21 April 1997

3) 21 April 1997 – 19 March 1998

4) 19 March 1998 – 19 May 2004

5) 22 May 2004 – Till Date

So nearly 10-15 years DMK was part of the Central Government and holding

the important and most revenue making ministries. It is highly probable that

DMK might have looted the Tax Payers money and benefitted from their

influence with Indian and Foreign Companies.

http://www.rediff.com/business/slide-show/slide-show-1-indias-10-highest-paid-ce

os/20111108.htm

http://www.myjourneytobillionaireclub.com/2010/08/kalanithi-maran.html

The following evidence gives the information that Kalanidhi Maran’s worth is

3 Billion US Dollars last year when Kalanidhi Maran bought shares of Spice Jet.

http://www.newkerala.com/news/fullnews-127143.html

After the buy out of Spice Jet, Kalanidhi planned for the expansion of Spice Jet

by ordering 30 Boeing Aircrafts for 2.7 Billions US Dollars.

http://www.hindustantimes.com/News-Feed/SectorsAviation/SpiceJet-orders-30-

Boeing-aircraft-for-USD-2-7-bn/Article1-578614.aspx

So the net wealth of Kalanidhi would be nearly 5 Billion US Dollars. Please go

through the following link about the expansion plans for the Spice Jet.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SpiceJet

So the total wealth of Maran Brothers (Kalanidhi Maran and Dhayanidhi Maran) will

be around 2,45,03,65,00,000 Crores of rupees.

An FIR was filed by CBI against the Maran Brothers for the Aircel-Maxis Deal.

‘’CBI officials said the Marans received kickbacks from the Malaysian firm in the

form of investments into Sun Direct after the Aircel-Maxis deal was struck.

Krishnan paid Rs 3,390.82 crore for 74 per cent equity in Aircel. Astro, also a part

of Ananda Krishnan’s media-telecom empire, announced a $160 million investment in

Sun Direct for a 20 per cent stake. Last year, Astro raised its stake in Sun Direct

to 35 per cent.’’

Karunanidhi Family Wealth:

Karunanidhi’s Family Wealth cannot be traced easily. Because karunanidhi does not

have a direct business entity and does not hold any properties directly we cannot

calculate the total wealth of Karunanidhi Family members directly. During his

tenures Karunanidhi was part of multiple scams and benefitted from many business

dealings. Many of his wealth are maintained by other people in the name of

benamies. Karunanidhi is clever and secretive in the business dealings. He does all

the business dealings and Scams silently and scientifically. It cannot be easily

traced. He has Money and Muscle Powers to protect the Business Empire. If

someone from his network goes away or deviates from the instructed path he is ok

to kill the person itself to protect the Business Empire. Most of his money is

invested in foreign countries especially South Asia and South East Asian Countries.

DMK:

Some of his wealth can be traced from the DMK political party. All the DMK party

offices and other properties and trusts owned by DMK party are in the name of

the party. So the Properties might have been registered with the family people of

Karunanidhi. The total wealth of all the movable and immovable assets will cross

hundreds of thousands of crores. If you calculate the human resources it adds to

its basics.

That is the important reason Karunanidhi is shying away to include other family

people and to give the top party posts to them. Even Perasiriar Anbalagan and

other senior party leaders are neglected to include his sons Stalin, Alagiri and

daughter Kanimozhi to get the important party posts.

Karunanidhi is considering the DMK as his business entity and wants to make it as a

Dynasty and so he wants the successor should be from his family. He is not ready

for the democratic election of leaders in the Party. This initiated the rivalry

between his sons, daughters and nephews. All the other hard working party men

were treated as slaves and refused to be given the important positions. Even the

party posts and seats to contest in elections are sold to people with Money and

Muscle Power and merit and service are forgotten. So all are business dealings in

DMK and money is everywhere. In the past they have done so much amount of Land

grabbing and other grabbing of Big Business Houses , Educational Institutions and

Trusts. This added to the accumulation of wealth to the Party and ultimately to

the Karunanidhi Family.

The following document clearly talks about the Wealth declaration of Karunanidhi

Family during the elections.

http://ramanan50.wordpress.com/2011/03/27/karunanidhi-family-octopus-of-india

n-politymedia/

During the last five years the following Cinema Companies are started by

Karunanidhi Family Members worth Crores of Rupees and produced films worth

hundreds of Crores of rupees. They benefitted from entertainment and other

charges from the State Government to register and release the films produced by

the family people. The Karunanidhi family people were controlling the entire Film

Industry including Production, Distribution and Exhibition.

1) Red Giant Movies

2) Cloud Nine Movies

3) Mohana Movies

Kalaingar TV

Kalaingar TV is a registered business entity with the name of Karunanidhi Family

Members.

It’s worth including the Land, equipments and other movable and immovable

properties may cross hundreds of Crores.

http://www.thehindu.com/news/national/article2388597.ece

From the above article around 200 Crores were transferred to Kalaingar TV

illegally as a bribe for the 2G Scam.
