10 Reasons Why Anbil Mahesh Deserved to Be Arrested! ​Before painting him as a martyr, let us remind the DMK PR machinery of 10 real reasons why he was taken into custody! ​Private School Approval Scam: Allegedly extorted over ₹100+ crore from 1,000+ private schools as illegal "party funds" through unregistered associations in exchange for fake NOCs and recognition. Imagine monetizing the safety and future of children! ​PR Gimmicks over Quality: Spent hundreds of crores on PR campaigns like "Illam Thedi Kalvi" while basic infrastructure in government schools across rural Tamil Nadu remained utterly dilapidated. Marketing over real education! ​Teachers Left in the Lurch: Promised to abolish TET requirements and regularize thousands of temporary and part-time teachers, only to betray them with police batons when they protested for fair wages. ​Empty Smart Classrooms: Built headline-grabbing "Smart Classrooms" on paper, while thousands of real classrooms lacked functional roofs, clean toilets, or basic drinking water facilities. ​Breakfast Scheme Maladministration: Turned a welfare scheme into a photo-op exercise plagued by quality issues, unhygienic distribution, and supplier corruption scandals across multiple districts. ​The NEET Hypocrisy: Kept fooling Tamil Nadu’s youth with false campaign promises of abolishing NEET with a "secret formula," leaving thousands of state board students stranded without proper coaching or support. ​Paper Leaks & Exam Mismanagement: Conducted public and competitive exams plagued by question paper leaks, severe evaluation errors, and administrative chaos year after year. ​Synthetic Drug Crisis Near Schools: Completely failed to curb the rampant spread of drugs and banned tobacco products near government school campuses, endangering young lives while looking the other way. ​Denying Central Funds for PR: Sacrificed thousands of crores in legitimate education grants (Samagra Shiksha) due to political ego battles with the Union Govt, directly starving poor students of much-needed resources. ​Unchecked Corruption under "Party Fund" Cover: Used constitutional power to turn the Education Ministry into a cash cow for corrupt party networks instead of serving our children. ​Corruption isn't an "achievement," and PR posts cannot erase financial fraud. ​This is not political vendetta—it is justice for Tamil Nadu's students and teachers!
