M. Subramanian Faces Legal Allegations Over Alleged Misuse of Public Land A legal case involving former Tamil Nadu minister M. Subramanian has gained attention after a court ordered the police to file charges against him and his wife, Kanchana, over allegations of misusing public land in Chennai’s Kandiyur colony. The dispute centers on a plot of land allocated to S. K. Ganesh under the Chennai Development Authority (CIDCO) in the 1990s. According to the case, Subramanian, who served as mayor of Chennai from 2006 to 2011, allegedly facilitated the transfer of the land to his wife’s name during his tenure. The allegations emerged from a land dispute involving the Kandiyur colony, where the CIDCO had initially allocated the property to Ganesh. However, the case claims that Subramanian’s wife, Kanchana, was falsely listed as the owner after the land was allegedly misappropriated. The special court in Chennai, following an order from the High Court, directed the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) to register a case against Subramanian under charges of fraud and conspiracy. The court also mandated that the police file formal charges against the couple. Subramanian and his wife contested the allegations, denying that they had any involvement in the land transfer. They argued that the claims were baseless and that the case was politically motivated. However, the court rejected their defense, stating that the allegations required further investigation. The case is now set for a hearing on March 31, where witness testimonies will be examined. This legal battle has intensified scrutiny on Subramanian, who is part of the Tamil Nadu Congress party (TNCP). The case follows similar legal challenges against other senior TNCP leaders, including former minister K.
