The Madras High Court on Monday (April 27, 2026) dismissed a new writ petition seeking an inquiry into the assets declared by Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK) president C. Joseph Vijay, while filing his nomination papers from the Perambur Assembly constituency for the elections held this year.

The First Division Bench of Chief Justice Sushrut Arvind Dharmadhikari and Justice G. Arul Murugan refused to entertain the petition, as they had already entertained another case of similar nature and ordered notice, returnable by June 3, to the Director General of Income Tax (Investigation).
