Singai Ramachandran Criticizes BJP and DMK for Lack of Development in Coimbatore

Singai Ramachandran discussed the unfulfilled promises of the BJP and DMK in Coimbatore at Theppakulam Grounds. Addressed issues like electricity and textile industry problems.


Coimbatore: During a press conference held at Theppakulam Grounds on April 17, Singai Ramachandran, contesting from the AIADMK, took a dig at the BJP and DMK for their underperformance in Coimbatore. Ramachandran, who has been actively involved in serving approximately 25,000 families in Coimbatore, expressed his concerns over the lack of infrastructure developments and untended issues in the electricity and textile sectors.


He criticized Annamalai, the BJP contender, stating no significant projects have been initiated for the benefit of the people in Coimbatore and nearby regions during the last three years. He contrasted his contributions with those of former AIADMK contestant Ganapathi Rajkumar, who served as the Mayor of Coimbatore City Corporation. Highlighting the stark difference in commitment, Ramachandran ensured to continue various development projects upon winning the forthcoming MP elections and is open to a direct debate with Annamalai, who he claims is evading confrontation.


Ramachandran boldly claimed that the BJP's election promise to deliver on 100 out of 500 days of assurances feels as shallow as claiming to have read 20,000 books without substantiating the action—indicating a disconnect between promises made and actions taken.
