100 days of TN CM Vijay: Free electricity, gold rings for newborns, Rs 1 lakh crore in investments — and a growing list of challenges
- TVK government under CM Vijay completed 100 days on August 17 — Tamil Nadu's first break from DMK-AIADMK rule in over 50 years.
- Key moves: 717 TASMAC outlets near schools closed, crop loan waivers for 14.43 lakh farmers and a gold ring for every baby born in a government hospital.
- The Vetri Tamil Nadu Investors' Conclave secured Rs 1 lakh crore in commitments — 97 MoUs worth Rs 67,452 crore signed at the August 13 conclave alone.
- DMK called it a "zero budget" of renamed schemes — promises of Rs 2,500 monthly assistance for women and free bus travel remain unfulfilled.
