The Supreme Court has called for tapes of Union Minister for Shipping, Road Transport & Highways, T R Baalu's speech, to decide whether he committed contempt of court or not. The Court has issued notices to two news channels, and also to their reporters and camerapersons to submit the original tapes of T R Baalu's speech on October 1, 2007 at Chennai during the Sethu Samudram bandh, according to news reports.
