Strongly disapprove CBI action against Stalin: Chidambaram
Reuters
New Delhi: Finance Minister P Chidambaram said that he strongly disapproved the CBI searching the residence of MK Stalin, son of DMK chief MK Karunanidhi, and added that it would send strong signals.
"Normally I do not comment on the working of another department (home ministry), but in this case I have to say that I strongly disapprove of the CBI's action. It is bound to be misunderstood," Chidambaram said. "I have conveyed my views to the minister in charge and I suggest you put further questions to the minister in charge," he added.
Officials of the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) today carried out a search at Stalin's residence in Chennai. The search comes two days after the DMK announced its decision to pull out of the Congress-led United Progressive Alliance (UPA) over the central government's stand on the Sri Lankan Tamils issue.
The raid at Stalin's house began around 6 a.m.
