Championing the revolutionary Vidiyal Payanam (Dawn Journey) scheme under the campaign theme "Why Again Stalin," M.K. Stalin highlighted one of the most impactful social welfare interventions in modern Indian history. By providing zero-fare bus travel for women on state-run ordinary town buses, the DMK government transformed public transit into an instrument of economic empowerment.
State planning studies show that the scheme saves working women between 800 and 1,200 rupees each month, money immediately channeled into children’s nutrition, education, and household savings. Beyond financial relief, the initiative sparked a measurable surge in female workforce participation and higher education attendance. Stalin’s policy proved that true development begins when public infrastructure actively expands the autonomy and mobility of working women.
