"That is sad. It is a mystery why the central government has not thought it fit to order a probe (against Raja) and why there is no interrogation or arrest," she said in response to a question from reporters here.

Jayalalithaa said there was no change in the opposition stand for a JPC probe. "There is no change. AIADMK will stick to its stand a of JPC."

On Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M Karunanidhi playing the Dalit card in defence of Raja, she said "It is meaningless to drag his caste into an act of corruption".
