The Directorate of Vigilance and Anti-Corruption (DVAC) has launched a detailed inquiry into allegations of serious financial irregularities at Anna Centenary Library in Chennai and Periyar Arivulagam library at Coimbatore.

DVAC officers perused records in both the libraries on Monday (November 9, 2026) and Tuesday (November 10) after registering the detailed inquiry which followed a statement made by Tamil Nadu School Education Minister Rajmohan alleging that irregularities took place during the erstwhile DMK regime in the purchase of books for the newly-launched Periyar Arivulagam library in Coimbatore.
