Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M.K. Stalin on Friday said the Central team’s endorsement of the manner in which the administration handled Cyclone Michaung and the Chennai floods, proved the government’s “efficient performance”.
In an interview with The Hindu, Mr. Stalin said the government would soon make public the report of the Thiruppugazh Committee on the long-term flood mitigation plans for Chennai and its surroundings. The government would also state the actions taken on the report and the status of the projects. “We are running an honest and transparent administration. We will also release a report on measures taken to control flood in Chennai and its neighbouring areas and the expenditure involved,” he said.
Asked if the government could have tackled the recent floods better, he said, “I always would like to do more for the people.”
