Take necessary steps to control inflation, Dhinakaran tells T.N. govt.
T.T.V. Dhinakaran, secretary of the Amma Makkal Munnetra Kazhagam (AMMK), cautioned the Tamil Nadu government to take necessary steps to curb inflation on Saturday. The AMMK leader emphasized that Tamil Nadu leads India in price increases, with retail inflation surging to 7.29%. The general secretary attributed this rise to the government's failure to monitor price hikes promptly and take timely action.
Dhinakaran alleged that the TVK government merely observed the situation, distracting from the reality by claiming they had controlled prices of essential commodities like rice, sugar, and pulses, while allegedly preventing hoarding. He expressed concern over Tamil Nadu's decline, once a trailblazing state, now in a dire state due to the inefficient administration of the TVK government.
Addressing social media distractions, the AMMK leader demanded the immediate implementation of constructive measures to control price rise, and rejected efforts to mislead the public via "Paid Virtual Warriors" on social media.
