Stalin launched the “Vadachennai Valarchi Thittam” expansion, allocating an additional Rs 4,181.03 crore to carry out 219 projects.
CHENNAI: “Prime Minister Narendra Modi is visiting Kanniyakumari tomorrow, purely for the sake of garnering votes—not to unveil any unique initiatives. Chief Minister MK Stalin questioned on Thursday, saying, “I don’t fault anyone for seeking votes, but did he come to Chennai, Tirunelveli, or Thoothukudi to see our people during floods?”
Speaking after officially opening “Vadachennai Valarchi Thittam’s” expansion, which will now carry out 219 projects at a higher budget of Rs 4,181.03 crore, was the speaker.
Stalin declared, “The BJP and the AIADMK have not supported Tamil Nadu or the state capital in the last ten years, but the DMK has always found methods to enhance infrastructure. Modi visited Gujarat the day after the floods there and approved relief the same.
All I am asking is why wasn’t Tamil Nadu..
All I am asking is why wasn’t Tamil Nadu given the assistance it sought. When I met the Prime Minister for the first time after assuming office as chief minister, I asked him to sanction funds for metro rail (phase II approval under 50:50 joint venture). It has been three years and we are yet to receive the funds, while other states have received it.”
Addressing the ‘separatists’ charge levelled against the DMK by the BJP, Stalin said, “The DMK needs no lessons in patriotism. Our party has been the first to extend aid during international conflicts. Tamil Nadu was the largest contributor to the Kargil relief fund.”
We have planned to set up model schools, focus on affordable housing, skill development centres, new bus stops and depots, substations, addiction rehabilitation centres and increase CCTV surveillance in crowded areas.
Tangedco will carry out 16 projects worth Rs 1,034.24 crore,
Corporation will work on 86 projects valued at Rs. 1071.44 crore, Metro Water 49 projects valued at Rs. 946.43 crore, CMDA 28 projects valued at Rs. 440.62 crore, and TNUHDB 23 projects valued at Rs. 287.84 crore.
