DMK doubled Tamil Nadu's public debt in four years

PMK president Anbumani Ramadoss criticized the DMK government for doubling the state's public debt to ₹9,40,000 crore in four years. In 2021, the debt was ₹4,40,000 crore under the previous government. He claimed the DMK borrowed more in four years than the state did in the previous 74 years. Anbumani emphasized the need for efficient administration to increase non-tax revenues instead of relying on tax hikes. He also remarked that the recent budget did not contain significant content to justify the lengthy speech by Finance Minister Thangam Thennarasu.
