Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M K Stalin took strong exception to Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s campaign in the state and likened the latter’s visits to a migratory bird arriving at the sanctuary during season and posed him questions on a series of issues.
The Prime Minister has come to the state with a set of guarantees for the 2024 general elections as his Gujarat model and Chaukidar role has been exposed, he said.
“Prime Minister Modi himself hovers over Tamil Nadu during the election season just like migratory birds come to the sanctuary during the season. Will you give these guarantees?” Stalin, who is president of the ruling DMK, asked in a post on the social media platform X.
பருவகாலத்தில் பறவைகள் சரணாலயத்துக்கு வருவது போல், தேர்தல் காலங்களில் தமிழ்நாட்டில் வட்டமடிக்கும் பிரதமர் மோடி அவர்களே…
குஜராத் மாடல் – சவுக்கிதார் வேடங்கள் போலி என அம்பலமானதால், கேரண்டி கார்டுடன் #Elections2024-க்கு வந்திருக்கும் பிரதமர் மோடி அவர்களே…
இதோ இந்த கேரண்டிகளைத்…

He sought to know from Modi, if he could guarantee conducting caste-wise census, remove the ceiling on reservation, strictly implement reservation for SC, ST and OBC, exempt Tamil Nadu from National Eligibility-cum-entrance test (NEET), never to impose Hindi and Sanskrit, and transferring education to state list.
Also, the CM wanted to know if the Prime Minister would write off the education loans of students, ensure jobs for two crore youth per year, Rs 400 grant under Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme, fixing minimum support price for agricultural produce.
