AIADMK Has Always Been Against Farmers: DMK's TKS Elangovan


Chennai, 19 July (H.S.): DMK Spokesperson TKS Elangovan has accused AIADMK General Secretary Edappadi K. Palaniswami (EPS) and his party of holding an anti-farmer stance. Elangovan underscored the DMK's initiatives, such as providing free electricity to farmers, and highlighted their opposition to the BJP's three farm bills, which, he noted, the AIADMK had supported. He further alleged that EPS is subservient to the BJP, claiming that the content of his speeches is dictated by them, suggesting an attempt by EPS to shield his son and other relatives from corruption charges.

These remarks follow earlier criticisms from EPS, who had targeted the ruling DMK and Chief Minister MK Stalin during his Let's Protect the People, Let's Save Tamil Nadu tour. Identifying himself as a farmer, EPS defended his use of a bus for campaigning, drawing a contrast with Stalin's alleged use of luxury vehicles and accusing Stalin's family of possessing a substantial trust fund.

He also lambasted the DMK government for purportedly trying to seize farmlands for gas projects, failing to procure paddy efficiently, and coercing farmers into paying bribes at procurement centers. EPS also asserted that the DMK had delivered on less than 10 percent of its election pledges, including the regularization of part-time teachers and the continuation of the free laptop scheme.

Additionally, he voiced concerns regarding the deteriorating law and order situation and the rise in drug sales across Tamil Nadu.
