High Drama Unfolds as Unaccounted Cash Seized in Vellore

In a dramatic turn of events, a flying squad of the Election Commission seized ₹7 lakh in unaccounted-for cash from a farmer’s family in Kanguppam, Vellore district. The family, led by farmer Natarajan, barricaded themselves inside the house, refusing to open the doors when surrounded by officials.

The situation escalated as police intervened, jumping onto the terrace from a neighboring house to access the locked premises. Despite claims that the seized money was their savings, sources reveal Natarajan’s involvement in lending and chit fund schemes, implying a deeper investigation into the source of the cash.
