The base for the Dravidian model of development that Chief Minister M.K. Stalin speaks about was laid by 32 years of rule by the All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (AIADMK), making Tamil Nadu the number one State in the country, its interim general secretary Edappadi K. Palaniswami said on September 29.
He credited the AIADMK Government for the increased gross enrolment ratio in higher education in the State by creating new schools and colleges, including 11 government medical colleges.
Addressing a public meeting near Sivakasi organised by the party to condemn the price rise, increase of electricity tariff and property tax by the DMK Government, Mr. Palaniswami said the DMK had cheated not only the unlettered masses, but also the educated people like government employees with its “attractive” poll promises which it has failed to implement.
