Tiruvallur, Nov 12:
Union Minister of State and senior BJP leader L. Murugan on Wednesday launched a sharp attack on the six-month-old Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK) government, characterizing it as an exact replica of the previous DMK administration and awarding it “zero marks” for governance.
Speaking to reporters after offering prayers at the Sri Subramanya Swamy Temple in Tiruttani, Murugan alleged that the public was reeling under severe inflation and administrative apathy. “Essential commodity prices, particularly rice consumed by ordinary and middle-class families, have skyrocketed. Law and order has collapsed completely. Just yesterday, more than five murders were reported in newspapers,” Murugan alleged.
Targeting the state’s economic and infrastructure management, the BJP leader claimed that developmental works across Tamil Nadu had ground to a standstill due to arbitrary policy reversals, alleging that over 3,000 government tenders had been cancelled without justification. He added that the BJP is focusing on strengthening its organizational base across the state to ensure representation from Tamil Nadu in Parliament.
