202 of 505 poll promises fulfilled in 4 months: Stalin

-

Chief Minister MK Stalin on Saturday said that his government has fulfilled 202 of the party’s 505 poll promises in the first four months.

Addressing the state people, Stalin, in a 10-minute video released on Saturday morning, said, “I am holding the responsibi­lity of the chief minister because of the vote cast by you. Every vote cast by you is the foundation for my occupying the CM’s chair.”

Stating that you (people) had cast the vote in the belief that DMK would fulfill its poll promises and do good to the people aplenty, Stalin said, “I can say with pride that we are functionin­g in a way that does not affect your confidence in us a wee bit. You voted for us. We have kept most of the promises we made. That is why I speak in your midst with confidence.”

Listing out the various fulfilled promises of his regime, the chief minister said, “We have also implemente­d various schemes not promised in the manifesto, including observing Thanthai Periyar’s birthday as social justice day.”

“DMK regime has fulfilled 202 of the 505 promises in the first four months. The

DMK regime would be the only one in the Indian subcontine­nt to have done so, ” Stalin said. Asking people not to consider this as initial momentum, the CM said, “We will continue to function like this forever. I will apprise you of the scheme implementa­tion every three months, like I do now. I will list out the promises fulfilled.”

“I am not a person who will be negligent that we would meet the voters only after five years. You (People) and my conscience drive me. You order me. I am ready to work for you, ” Stalin said.
