ED to close case against 2 Dalit farmers in Tamil Nadu following public outcry. The Enforcement Directorate has decided to close the case against two Tamil Nadu Dalit farmers after a social media uproar. The controversy arose when the summons referred to their caste name, triggering widespread backlash. The case has been closed as the probe began based on a predicate offence. The farmers, in their 70s, were allegedly targeted due to a land dispute with a local BJP leader. The issue was blown out of proportion after six months of the summons, with no questioning or further summons issued. The case has now been closed as the forest department's case against the farmers has also been closed in a Salem court.
