A 26-year-old man named Iraiyanbu was killed early Monday when a car belonging to Tamil Nadu Social Welfare Minister K. Jagadeshwari struck his motorbike at Kattankulathur junction near Chennai. The minister, a member of the Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK) party, was travelling in a government vehicle convoy to attend the state assembly session when her personal car — driven by a hired driver — hit the motorcyclist. Police have arrested the driver, Chinna Agni, and registered charges of rash driving and causing death by negligence under the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (India's updated criminal code).
