100 days of TVK govt: CM Vijay defines priorities, but his real test begins now
· India · Times of India, India Today
Chief Minister C Joseph Vijay marked 100 days in office with a report card that lists welfare schemes, investment pushes and task‑force creations. The report highlights free electricity, farm‑loan relief, school laptops and rural programmes, while noting Rs 1 lakh crore in investment commitments and a drive for faster approvals. A Singappen Special Task Force on women’s safety was launched on day one, and the Thaaimaaman Thanga Mothiram scheme of Rs 560 crore provided gold rings to newborns in government hospitals. The document also notes the Annan’s Seer Scheme of Rs 812 crore for brides’ gold coin and saree, and task forces on anti‑narcotics and closure of liquor outlets near schools and temples.
Why it matters
The welfare measures target Tamil Nadu’s farmers, new parents, brides and women, while the investment emphasis aims to attract private capital to the state. Citizens who rely on electricity, agriculture credit and maternity services stand to benefit from the government’s promises.
