Parliamentary General elections
to the 14th Lok Sabha are to the conducted soon. Following elections to
the 13th Lok Sabha in 1999, the National Democratic Alliance Government
was formed with the DMK, MDMK, PMK and others as constituent parties.
But, during the last five years of the NDA Government, Ministers from
these parties representing Tamil Nadu failed to lend any support to the
development plans to Tamil Nadu or to the State’s social welfare
schemes to improve the quality of life of the people of Tamil Nadu.
Based on the belief that if such beneficial plan allocations which were
obtained from the Centre by the efforts other Chief Minister Puratchi
Thalaivi J Jayalalithaa, reached the people, it would only enhance the
prestige of Chief Minister J Jayalalithaa, these parties were pursuing
with vengeance their obstructionist policies. Though the people of Tamil
Nadu had voted them to power and made them MPs and Central Ministers
with the fond hope that they would work for the development of Tamil
Nadu, they were only assiduous in betraying the very people who elected
them, to power. Ignoring the welfare of the people of Tamil Nadu who had
elected the, they were only intent on looking after their own interests
for the entire period of 6 years. They threw to the winds the tall poll
promises that they had made to the people of Tamil Nadu at the time of
the 1999 Lok Sabha Elections.
