On Tuesday, BJP Mahila Morcha president Vanathi Srinivasan accused the ruling DMK government in Tamil Nadu of stalling railway projects due to sluggish land acquisition processes.
Srinivasan, who also serves as Coimbatore South MLA, alleged that development is being hampered at the state level, causing delays in project delivery.
Despite the Central Government's allocation of Rs 7,611 crore for railway projects since 2014, only 1,052 of the necessary 4,326 hectares have been acquired, she stated. Srinivasan's remarks came after Chief Minister M K Stalin accused the Centre of denying Tamil Nadu its due projects in the Union Budget.
