1570 கோப்புகளில் கையெழுத்து போட்டிருப்பதாக சொல்லி தமிழக அரசின் நிர்வாகம் ஸ்தம்பித்து நிற்பதை மறைக்க முயன்றுள்ளார் முதல்வர் #ParalayzedTNgovt...

DMK working president M.K. Stalin criticized Chief Minister Edappadi K. Palaniswami on May 2, 2017, challenging his public claim of having signed 1,570 administrative files. Stalin remarked that boasting about routine clerical approvals was a desperate tactic designed to obscure widespread governance paralysis across Tamil Nadu. Meaningful leadership, he observed, is reflected in effective public outcomes and timely problem resolution, not in counting bureaucratic signatures on routine paperwork while public grievances mount unchecked.

Stalin pointed out that critical public sectors remained neglected, with farmers protesting, drinking water scarcity worsening, and welfare disbursements facing chronic delays. Despite claims of administrative efficiency, ordinary citizens visited government offices daily only to encounter indecision and apathy. He questioned whether the 1,570 files included controversial submissions, such as the widely criticized court affidavit that denied agrarian distress and farmer suicides, demonstrating a profound disconnect between official claims and ground reality.

The opposition leader stated that the DMK would continue exposing administrative lapses and demanding executive transparency. He emphasized that the state apparatus must be mobilized to serve public welfare rather than generating statistical distractions to protect an unstable administration from legitimate public scrutiny.
