DMK president M.K. Stalin presented a constructive five-point policy agenda to both Union and state governments, urging decisive administrative intervention to alleviate the deep humanitarian misery inflicted by the pandemic lockdown. Highlighting that mitigating public distress remains the paramount constitutional duty of governance during crises, Stalin recommended providing free food across all urban Amma Canteens, immediately releasing pending salaries and hazard bonuses to hardworking municipal sanitation workers, and halting physical press conferences by switching to digital communications to avoid media crowding.

In addition, Stalin demanded the complete waiver of fixed domestic electricity charges for low-income consumers and the immediate suspension of toll collections at highway toll plazas across Tamil Nadu. Imposing toll tariffs during a national transport crisis hampers essential commodity transit and inflates freight charges, while impoverished households struggling without income find utility bills overwhelmingly punitive. He stressed that administrative flexibility and fiscal magnanimity are vital to preserving public morale.

Stalin called upon the Chief Minister to adopt these recommendations without partisan hesitation, ensuring immediate financial and nutritional relief reaches working-class families. He affirmed that the DMK will persistently propose progressive solutions to protect vulnerable citizens throughout the health emergency.
