Union Home Minister Amit Shah today said that it was the Narendra Modi Government that recognised the richness of ancient Tamil language and allowed the candidates of NEET exam to write in Tamil. Mr. Shah was addressing a public meeting at Vellore in Tamil Nadu. The BJP leader said that the NDA government had allocated 2 lakh 47 thousand crore rupees for the development of Tamil Nadu. He listed out the various development projects carried out by the Central Government in the State. He questioned DMK leader and Chief Minister Mr. M K Stalin on what their party did for the State when they were in coalition with the Congress.

Criticising the DMK and the Congress for being in power for generations, he said that there were corruption cases against them whereas there was not a single allegation in the NDA government.
