Ruling party can’t provide any scheme, says Alagiri
The AIADMK government cannot provide any social or people related schemes as the government revenue is very little compared to the Rs 4 lakh crore loan burden, TNCC president KS Alagiri said on Monday.
Vellore
When it was pointed out that the government was continuing to announce various welfare schemes, he said they were meant only for self-publicity as they would never be implemented.
Interacting with reporters, he said Chief Minister Edappadi K Palaniswami was always happy because the loan was on the government and not on himself. A special Assembly sitting should be held with regard to implementation of various schemes, he added.
On NEET, he said it was a social and not a political issue. The present state board syllabus was ill equipped to help student handle NEET he said and added that Congress was against NEET as there was no need for a third exam (after SSLC and plus two) to quiz students.
Condemns Vasan
On the Subramania Swamy – Vaiko spat, he said the former was a broker. Referring to TMC leader GK Vasan’s statement that Rahul Gandhi had gone missing after the poll debacle, Alagiri said he condemned the statement as Vasan was a leader who ran a party to get a Rajya Sabha seat and who had done nothing to help Congress grow when he was at the helm of affairs for 10 years.
