Peoples welfare must guide Centre-TN ties: BJP leader
Digital Desk | Chennai, Oct 12 (IANS) Peoples welfare must guide relations between the Centre and Tamil Nadu, BJP leader Vanathi Srinivasan said on Monday, calling for political differences to be set aside when pursuing projects essential to the states development. In a post on X, the former president of the BJPs national womens wing said governments could differ in their policies and political alliances, but their engagement should be anchored in public welfare and the states progress. Her remarks followed Prime Minister Narendra Modis participation in government programmes in Chennai on Sunday, where development initiatives for Tamil Nadu and the states infrastructure requirements came into focus. Vanathi said the events demonstrated the importance the Union government attached to development projects in Tamil Nadu. They also highlighted PM Modis concern for the state and the Centres contribution to implementing projects intended to support its growth, she said. She welcomed Chief Minister C. Joseph Vijays presentation of Tamil Nadus infrastructure needs before the Prime Minister, describing his decision to outline the states requirements during his speech a positive step. The Chief Ministers requests included Metro rail projects for Madurai and Coimbatore, alongside four-lane road projects and other major infrastructure works, according to her post. Vanathi said advancing such proposals required cooperation across political divides. Governments should give proper consideration to peoples needs and work towards meeting them, rather than allowing differences in political positions to determine the course of development, she said. Her comments placed both the Centres role in supporting Tamil Nadu and the state governments responsibility to articulate its requirements within the same framework of cooperation for public benefit. The BJP leader said the need of the hour was to take forward projects necessary for the states development while ensuring that public demands received appropriate attention and were fulfilled. She stressed that differences over policies or alliances should coexist with cooperation on development. The relationship between the two governments, she said, should ultimately be judged by its contribution to peoples welfare and Tamil Nadus progress, with the states essential infrastructure needs receiving priority in their engagement.

TN looks to Rabi recovery as Kharif paddy acreage falls 28 pc
Digital Desk | Chennai, Oct 12 (IANS) A sharp contraction in Kharif paddy cultivation has left Tamil Nadu relying on the rabi season to meet its annual foodgrain target. A delayed opening of Mettur Dam and lower Cauvery inflows have been identified as the principal reasons for the decline. Paddy acreage during April-September stood at 12.52 lakh hectares, compared with 17.5 lakh hectares in 2025-26. The loss of 4.98 lakh hectares represents a 28 per cent fall, underscoring the impact of water shortages on cultivation. The agriculture department is counting on increased sowing during October-March to bridge the shortfall. It has kept the states 2026-27 foodgrain production target at 125 lakh metric tonnes, with paddy expected to contribute 79 lakh metric tonnes. Normal rainfall forecast for the Rabi season has reinforced expectations of a recovery. The cultivation target for the season remains 30.26 lakh hectares. In 2025-26, Tamil Nadu produced 122.43 lakh metric tonnes of foodgrains against a target of 130.23 lakh metric tonnes. Districts have received crop contingency plans, with farmers encouraged to adopt direct sowing instead of transplantation. The method requires less water and could also reduce the risk of crop damage during northeast monsoon rains. Samba cultivation has begun gathering momentum, and the department considers the next 45 days crucial for the seasons progress. Officials maintain that the reduction in kharif acreage does not indicate an impending foodgrain shortage. Kuruvai cultivation also suffered a substantial decline. Statewide acreage dropped from 5.05 lakh hectares last year to 3.91 lakh hectares, a loss of 1.14 lakh hectares. In the delta districts, the cultivated area fell from 2.55 lakh hectares to 1.85 lakh hectares. The slowdown has affected agricultural supplies and cooperative lending. Fertilisers and seeds valued at Rs 300 crore have accumulated across the states 4,400 primary agricultural cooperative credit societies as demand weakened. The cooperative marketing federation has widened access to fertilisers, allowing supplies to farmers outside cooperative society membership. The move seeks to stimulate cultivation and clear accumulated stocks. Subsidised fertilisers had previously been available only to society members who obtained crop loans. Meanwhile, the cooperation department has put crop loan recovery on hold as cooperative banks report substantially lower disbursements. The lending slowdown reflects reduced cultivation, while the department continues to bank on the rabi season to restore agricultural activity and help meet the annual production target.

Rain, gusty winds forecast in TN; Northeast monsoon likely to begin around October 15
Digital Desk | Chennai, Oct 12 (IANS) Moderate rain is likely in parts of Tamil Nadu on Monday, with the weather department forecasting thunderstorms and gusty winds across several districts, even as northern interior areas may experience temperatures above normal. The Nilgiris, Coimbatore, Erode, Madurai and Salem are among the districts where moderate rainfall is expected during the day. A weather department bulletin also indicated the possibility of light to moderate rain accompanied by thunder, lightning and strong winds at one or two places across a wider belt of the State. The districts covered by this forecast are the Nilgiris, Coimbatore, Erode, Kanniyakumari, Tirunelveli, Thoothukudi, Tenkasi, Madurai, Sivaganga, Salem and Tiruppur. Wind speeds in affected areas could reach 40 to 50 kilometres per hour, according to the bulletin. Elsewhere in Tamil Nadu, as well as in Puducherry and Karaikal, light rain accompanied by thunder and lightning is likely at some places. The forecast points to varying rainfall conditions across the region, with moderate showers expected in selected districts and lighter rainfall in other areas. Despite the prospect of showers, maximum temperatures at some locations in northern interior Tamil Nadu could remain two to three degrees Celsius above normal. Temperatures elsewhere in the state, Puducherry and Karaikal are expected to stay close to their usual levels, the department said. Chennai is likely to have partly cloudy skies. The citys maximum temperature is expected to range between 35 and 36 degrees Celsius, while the minimum could settle between 26 and 27 degrees Celsius. Meanwhile, weather observer Pradeep John, a member of the El Nino Impact Study Group, has indicated that the northeast monsoon could begin next Thursday. His prediction comes as attention turns to the development of atmospheric conditions that could support the seasonal rains over Tamil Nadu. In a post on X, John said an atmospheric circulation moving towards the region adjoining Tamil Nadu was likely to create favourable conditions for the monsoons onset. His assessment concerns the possible arrival of the northeast monsoon, while the weather departments bulletin outlines the immediate outlook for rainfall, winds and temperatures. The Thursday onset remains a prediction rather than an officially confirmed onset date. For Monday, the main forecast is for scattered thunderstorms, gusty winds and differing rainfall intensity, alongside warmer conditions in parts of the northern interior.

PM Modi says will work with CM Vijay for TN's growth, development my 'mantra'
Chennai, Oct 11:Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday said he has taken development as his 'mantra,' and reaffirmed his commitment to serve the people of Tamil Nadu and ensuring the state's progress by working with Chief Minister C Joseph Vijay. He listed the rapid strides made in various sectors in the last 12 years, including the significant jump in defence exports. In his address after inaugurating and laying the foundation stone for railway, road and petroleum-related projects worth about Rs 13,000 crore with Vijay, the PM underscored his commitment to ensure development. During the inauguration, the prime minister invited Vijay with a gesture to jointly flag off the Chennai Metro Phase-2 network, marking a milestone event carrying immense political and administrative significance for the centre-state ties. He held Vijays hand and jointly flagged off the service. The Chennai Metro Phase 2 network has been executed as a joint venture between the Central and Tamil Nadu state governments. Later, at the launch of infrastructure projects too, the PM held CM Vijay's hand to jointly inaugurate the initiatives. During his subsequent address, Prime Minister Modi said, I have always taken the country's development as my mantra. As chief minister, I understood the expectations of a state. After becoming PM, not only did I try to fulfil the aspirations but also made efforts so that the states meet their aspiration goals, he said. Referring to Tamil Nadu, he said when he was CM, he got the opportunity to interact with late leaders M Karunanidhi and J Jayalalithaa when they headed Tamil Nadu. And, after becoming prime minister, he could work with former CMs O Panneerselvam, Edappadi K Palaniswami and M K Stalin. Governments may change, but my resolve for Tamil Nadu's development, serving its people remains steadfast. With this determination to serve people, together with CM Vijay, we are taking forward the development of the state, he said. TVK founder Vijay had ushered in his maiden government by winning the April Assembly elections in Tamil Nadu. Referring to his completion of 25 years as PM and CM, Modi said, As head of government, my trust in people and cooperative federalism has grown strong. A few days ago, with the blessings of the people, I completed 25 years of public service as a head of government - an important milestone. In October 2001, I took the oath as the chief minister of Gujarat. From there onwards, the people allowed me to serve them, first as chief minister and later as prime minister. Over these 25 years, my faith in two great strengths of our democracy has grown even stronger. First, the people of the country; and second, cooperative federalism, the PM said. He said Tamil Nadu has played a significant role in the journey of strengthening port infrastructure to take the shipping sector to new heights. With an investment of around Rs 17,000 crore, V O Chidambaranar Port in Thoothukudi is being developed into a world-class mega container and green energy hub. Once completed, the port will be able to accommodate the worlds ultra-large container vessels. This will help transform Tamil Nadu into a global hub for industry and transportation, he said. He noted that since 2014, Indias electronics exports increased 11-fold, while defence exports have grown 50-fold. Engineering exports have also reached new records. The growth in manufacturing has created lakhs of jobs for the youth, and the people of Tamil Nadu have played an important role in driving this manufacturing growth. I have always believed that urbanisation is not a challenge but an opportunity, and public transportation plays a crucial role in realising that opportunity. Good public transport improves the ease of living for people. However, better transportation requires more than just widening roads. Modern cities need holistic infrastructure. That is why, over the last decade, we have focused on expanding metro connectivity across the country, he said. In 2014, metro services were available in only five cities, but today, they are operational in 25 cities across the country. From mandir to metro, these experiences of Tamil Nadu reflected the spirit of India, which draws strength and inspiration from its cultural heritage, he said and noted that the Rs 13,000 crore worth of projects that he inaugurated and laid foundations for new ones would make daily travel easier; others will strengthen industry and trade. Together, they will create jobs for young people across Tamil Nadu, Modi said. Following the inauguration, PM Modi took a ride on the Chennai Metro from Porur Bypass Station to Poonamallee Bypass Station and back, accompanied by Chief Minister Vijay and senior officials.
The Minister said the delegation to meet PM Modi would submit a representation seeking adequate financial assistance and additional workdays under the VB-G RAM G Scheme.
