A ‘remake version’ of the DMK government’s budget, it had not addressed people’s problems. Most of the promises given during the elections have not been implemented and they don’t find any mention in the Budget also. Own tax revenue has declined by about Rs 3,000 crore and revenue expenditure has gone up to Rs. Various schemes implemented during the DMK regime were currently being re-announced with new names without appropriate financial allocations for the full implementation. President of TNCC, Manickam Tagore:Welcome the Budget that promises to bring development to the State and increase job opportunities.
