Overview

  • The report claims just 12.94% of DMK’s 2021 manifesto pledges were fully delivered, with 66 partially implemented and 373 unfulfilled plus five additional campaign assurances.
  • Released in Chennai on August 26, the 100-plus page booklet is titled Vidiyal Enge? (Where is the Dawn) and was presented by party leader Anbumani Ramadoss.
  • PMK highlights shortfalls in employment and education, citing the failure to create 3.5 lakh government jobs, scrap NEET, and cancel student education loans.
  • The document alleges minimal progress in agriculture, fisheries, irrigation, and healthcare, saying only three of 18 health promises were met with no new super-speciality hospitals or expanded ambulance services.
  • Governance reforms are flagged as unkept, including strengthening the Lokayukta, enacting a Right to Services Act, and setting up special anti-corruption courts, while the coverage carried no DMK rebuttal or independent verification.
