Tamil Nadu Agriculture Budget offers no relief to drought-hit farmers in Cauvery Delta: DMK leader M.K. Stalin

The DMK president and former Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu, M.K. Stalin, criticized the state government's recent Agriculture Budget, calling it 'empty' and accusing it of failing to provide relief to drought-stricken farmers in the Cauvery Delta region. In a social media post, Stalin argued that the budget did not address the ongoing drought crisis or the distress faced by farmers, instead praising the current Chief Minister. He questioned the government's approach, suggesting they were merely rebranding existing welfare programs introduced by the previous DMK administration. Stalin stated that the DMK would continue raising concerns about farmers' plight during the Budget session and urge the government to implement corrective actions. He urged the government to 'wake up' and offer solutions to the agricultural community.
