Stalin unveils ₹1.3K cr projects, lays foundation stone for new works

- EXPRESS NEWS SERVICE @Tirunelveli

A day after buying halwa from the famous Iruttukadai in Tirunelveli, CM MK Stalin took a 'halwa' dig at the central government for ignoring TN in the Union budget.

Announcing various projects for the district on Friday, Stalin said Tirunelveli is known for its world-famous 'halwa', "but now, the 'halwa' given by the centre to the state has become even more famous". 'Halwa' jibe is a Tamil expression of the sweet delicacy to mean deception.

Blasting the centre for not allocating funds to the state, the CM said the development of the southern districts will grow by leaps and bounds in the next five years. "It will make a tiger leap," he said.

Stalin was speaking at a government function organised on Tirunelveli Medical College campus.
