Coimbatore: Union Minister of State for Information & Broadcasting, Fisheries, Animal Husbandry and Dairy L Murugan has come down heavily on the DMK for its alleged failure to fulfil electoral promises.
Launching BJP’s Makkal Aasi Yatra, which is aimed at spreading awareness on central schemes, in Coimbatore, Murugan said DMK deceived people by giving false and unfeasible promises. “It is saddening that they did not fulfil electoral promises in the last 100 days,” he said.
Murugan said that Opposition parties created ruckus and stalled introduction of new Central Ministers from SC and tribal communities as they were against social justice.
“The Congress, DMK, Communists and TMC members did not like the Ministers from SC, tribal and OBC communities to be introduced in Parliament. They created a big confusion with an internal motive,” he said.
Highlighting that he was the first member of the Arunthathiyar community to be appointed as a Minister of State, Murugan condemned the Opposition for interrupting Prime Minister Narendra Modi during his customary introduction of new Ministers.
