Stalin Criticizes BJP's 'Cheap Politics' Amidst New Infrastructure Announcements

Tamil Nadu CM MK Stalin accused the BJP of practicing divisive 'cheap politics' under the guise of spiritualism. He underscored his administration's focus on the state's development, including announcing infrastructure projects worth Rs 130 crore, instead of stirring unnecessary disputes.

Tamil Nadu Chief Minister MK Stalin has criticized the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) for engaging in divisive tactics disguised as spiritualism. Emphasizing that true spiritualism fosters unity, Stalin labeled BJP's approach as 'cheap politics of the worst kind.'

Speaking on Sunday, Stalin, after revealing new infrastructure development projects, including an Rs 130 crore road initiative, asserted his government's commitment to Tamil Nadu's growth. Conversely, he accused others of aiming to derail progress by inflating unrelated issues.

Amid the backdrop of the Karthigai Deepam festival observance, Stalin claimed that unnecessary controversies over the lamp lighting practice at religious sites were politically motivated, reiterating the rituals were conducted as per tradition.
