DMK using state funds for party activities: Nainar
Trichy: BJP state president Nainar Nagenthran has accused the DMK govt of misusing state funds to promote Ungaludan Stalin scheme as a party activity, and using senior bureaucrats as propaganda secretaries of DMK. He was speaking at the BJP urban party office in Trichy on Wednesday where he visited to discuss the reception for Prime Minister Narendra Modi who is scheduled to visit the state on July 26 and 27. "I oppose the Ungaludan Stalin programme. It's a party activity; I wonder how senior bureaucrats agree to run this scheme. This is not right, and we cannot allow it," Nagenthran said. He added that DMK's Oraniyil Tamil Nadu initiative is an unwanted and deceptive move since the state is within India. "We want to unseat DMK from power in 2026, and our alliance is intact. But nobody is questioning the chief minister about the unity of DMK's alliance," Nagenthran said. He said the PM would inaugurate the new Tuticorin airport terminal on July 26 evening and take part in Aadi Thiruvathirai festival at Gangaikonda Cholapuram in Ariyalur district on July 27.
