“Women with water pots in their hands have had to search far and wide in search of water,” Stalin said. “AIADMK has not given importance to the issue which is why water scarcity prevails. The government acted on it after we raised the issue.” The state Assembly session began Friday.
Speaking about the state government’s plan to set up a fourth desalination plant in Chennai by 2024, Stalin said it was the DMK who had initially proposed the idea.
