In a resounding acknowledgment of the accomplishments under the leadership of Chief Minister M K Stalin, Tamil Nadu Congress Committee (TNCC) president K Selvaperunthagai lauded the achievements of the DMK regime despite facing significant financial constraints and what he described as the ‘vindictive anti-Tamil Nadu’ stance of the BJP-led central government.In a statement commemorating Chief Minister Stalin’s three years in office, Selvaperunthagai highlighted the remarkable progress made by the state government in various sectors. He emphasized the challenges inherited by the DMK regime, noting the substantial debt burden of Rs 8.40 lakh crore left by the previous AIADMK administration.
Despite grappling with financial burdens, Selvaperunthagai commended Chief Minister Stalin for steering the state on a path of growth and development. He cited several key initiatives undertaken by the government, including the disbursement of Covid relief packages during the second wave of the pandemic and the reduction in petrol prices at the outset of Stalin’s tenure.
Among the notable achievements highlighted by the TNCC chief were the successful implementation of the ‘Kalaignar Magalir Urimai Thittam,’ a pioneering initiative benefiting over 1.15 crore women, and the ‘Vidiyal Payanam’ scheme, providing 445 crore free bus trips to women across the state.
