During the emergency, the people of Tamil Nadu benefited as government offices functioned promptly, banks operated effectively, train services were running on time and there was overall discipline among public servants, said TNCC president E.V.K.S. Elangovan here on Tuesday.
Speaking to reporters, he said that the Emergency may have harmed the Dravidian parties, but the rule reflected good results from the industry sector. The inflation was under control and grain production achieved new high then. Allegations such as corruption were absent. Even after a year, nothing much had rolled out from the Narendra Modi government. “Now, the BJP leaders seemed to be focussed on protecting four of its women leaders, who are caught in scams of different degrees,” he alleged and demanded resignation.
With the aim of establishing Kamaraj rule, the Congress would fight the general elections in the State scheduled for next year on its own; he replied to a query. Parties willing to join us were welcome.
