Chairing the meeting, minister
K N Nehru
dismissed opposition leader Edappadi K Palaniswami's claim about forming a strong alliance ahead of the
2026 assembly election
, noting that the
had already defeated the same alliance in the last assembly polls.
"Welfare schemes launched by our chief minister have resonated especially with women. Public support is with the DMK. The groundwork for the 2026 election begins with the CM's visit to Trichy.
Cadres must be prepared," Nehru said.
He accused the previous
government of neglecting Trichy's development and highlighted key projects initiated by the DMK government, including the Panjapur IBT, a Tidel Park, a new wholesale vegetable market, and multiple flyovers. He added that requests for funds for a government dental college, a Siddha hospital, and a new link road between the MGR statue near the district court and Allithurai would be submitted to the CM during his visit.
"Trichy's growth will continue over the next five years," Nehru stated.
The meeting passed four resolutions, including one thanking the chief minister and deputy chief minister Udhayanidhi Stalin for allocating funds for the IBT, and another commending the state government for securing the authority to appoint vice-chancellors through the Supreme Court.
School education minister Anbil Mahesh Poyyamozhi urged party functionaries across all three district units to give the chief minister a rousing welcome.
