The DMK’s latest announcement aimed exclusively at Chennai seeks to address urban infrastructure, mobility and future jobs. Its promises include RO drinking water supply for areas without metro water access, a world-class cultural centre, and 1,000 minibuses to improve last-mile connectivity linking interior streets with metro, bus and suburban rail networks.
“It’s the DMK that’s synonymous with Chennai’s development! Wherever you turn, all the internal infrastructure facilities you see were created by the DMK! Promises for Chennai to ensure this development journey continues!” Stalin said in a post on X in Tamil.
Among other key proposals are completion of the Chennai Metro Rail expansion by 2028, a threefold increase in veterinarians and dog catchers for animal birth control measures, and a ₹10,000 crore investment in a dedicated hub for Artificial Intelligence, animation, visual effects and immersive technologies.
