A Singapore court declares Indian businessman Ramu Palani Velu bankrupt after wages go unpaid to about 400 workers, according to reports. Velu is described as the director of multiple companies in Singapore tied to air-conditioning, plumbing and building services.

The company outlets named include KPA Engineering, SK Industries and VVR Plant Engineering, alongside other local firms. Across the reporting, the focus remains on the wage arrears affecting a large group of employees and on Velu’s role within the companies. The coverage presents Velu’s corporate involvement and the worker impact as the central context behind the bankruptcy declaration.

While the available material emphasizes the unpaid wages and the number of workers affected, it does not offer substantial additional dispute details or differing perspectives in these sources.
