Terming as “step-motherly” the attitude of the Central government towards Tamil Nadu when funds were sought to help mitigate the damage wreaked by natural disasters, AIADMK general secretary Edappadi K. Palaniswami on Tuesday, December 26, 2023, urged the BJP government at the Centre to allocate funds to Tamil Nadu.
The AIADMK general secretary also reiterated that the AIADMK was not in an alliance with the BJP.
During his speech at the AIADMK general council meeting at Vanagaram near Chennai, Mr. Palaniswami urged the BJP government at the Centre to release funds for Tamil Nadu soon, towards relief for the damage caused by the heavy rains the State witnessed recently.
