Sting Operation in Tamil Nadu: Minister Exposes Corruption at Temple

A corruption scandal has come to light at the Tiruchendur Murugan temple in Tamil Nadu. Allegations that priests were collecting money for VIP darshan led Minister Ramesh to conduct a sting operation by visiting the temple disguised as a common devotee wearing a mask.

The minister reportedly paid ₹4000 via Google Pay for the VIP darshan and later revealed his identity, exposing the malpractice. Following the incident, a priest and two security personnel were suspended. Devotees have welcomed the minister’s action.
