DMK leader NR Elango accuses BJP of "copying" party's promise to hike women's allowance to ₹2000

Apr 14, 2026

DMK leader NR Elango, while speaking to ANI, said, "The Tamil Nadu government is already giving Rs 1000 to eligible women. That means they are entitled to that. The BJP says that we are giving freebies. We are not saying this is free, but their right to get that amount from the government. In our election manifesto, we have promised we would increase that amount to Rs 2000... The BJP is just copying it."
