Some opposition parties were campaigning that the DMK government will not provide any welfare schemes to the district as all the 10 MLAs elected in the 2021 assembly election from the region were from AIADMK and BJP, Udhayanidhi said at a meeting here in which he distributed welfare schemes and laid foundation stone for new projects. "However, Chief Minister M K Stalin had clearly stated that there would not be any partiality in providing welfare measures, since he considered all the voters, who voted for and against DMK, as one and kept his promises by implementing projects and schemes beneficial to the people of the district," the minister said.
