Tamil Nadu Cooperation Minister Sellur Raju, who made headlines with his infamous 'thermacol experiment' to save the lake, has stirred a fresh controversy by stating that welfare schemes launched by the government will only be given to the All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (AIADMK) cardholders. The remark by Cooperation Minister Sellur Raju comes after Tamil Nadu Deputy Chief Minister O Panneerselvam stated that the welfare schemes launched by the government were for all the people belonging to the state.
