"A girl named Aradhana, who is studying in class 3 in a school in Vinathirtha Nadarpatti in this district, has written to me that she wants an additional classroom building for our school. This makes me very happy. The children have also placed a lot of trust in me and have sent a request letter. Accepting the request made by the girl Aradhana, I have immediately ordered the construction of two classrooms for the school at a cost of Rs.35 lakhs in the first phase", said the Chief Minister.
It has been 19 months since the DMK government led by MK Stalin came to power in the southern state of Tamil Nadu. "So far we have been doing various welfare programs for the people.

Taking about his dream to make Tamil Nadu the number one state of the country, he said that Tamil Nadu is rising across all sectors. "I see this in people's minds. People are encouraging me saying that this regime should continue," he said.
