AIADMK General Secretary Edappadi K. Palaniswami campaigned in Tamil Nadu, criticizing the ruling DMK government and Chief Minister M.K. Stalin. Palaniswami asserted that the AIADMK fulfilled 95% of its promises, including creating Kallakurichi district, while alleging the DMK failed to implement even 5% of theirs. He specifically criticized the DMK's handling of the MGNREGS, claiming they failed to increase workdays as promised and are now highlighting the existing 100-day scheme as an achievement. Palaniswami pledged to increase MGNREGS workdays to 150 and ensure uninterrupted employment with higher wages if AIADMK returns to power.
