Amidst complaints of undetected cash movement across the State, PMK leader Anbumani Ramadoss launched a scathing attack on the Election Commission here on Thursday.

“The increased movement of cash has cast aspersions on the integrity of EC forcing one to wonder if it was abetting money movement,” he told reporters here adding that Tamil Nadu does not need an Election Commission that cannot conduct fair elections . Alleging that cash was already being circulated in Pennagaram, the constituency where he is contesting, under the watch of the officials, he said cash had already been distributed in about 70 per cent of the villages.
