Chief Minister M.K. Stalin and several leaders of the DMK-led front on Thursday strongly condemned a Tamil daily for having published a front-page news report denigrating the Chief Minister’s Breakfast Scheme, which was recently extended across government-run schools in Tamil Nadu.
Sporadic protests broke out in some places against the daily. On the micro-blogging website X [formerly Twitter], Mr. Stalin posted an image of the report in certain editions of the Tamil daily Dinamalar, which said: “Toilets in schools were overflowing because students were eating double meals.”
