The states of Assam, West Bengal, Tamil Nadu and Kerala and the UT of Puducherry go for polls in April. Though the election dates were announced by the EC only on 26 February, the campaign had started months ahead, especially in Tamil Nadu and West Bengal. The governments have also been coming out with massive advertisements in the media, projecting the achievements of the parties in power and also with liberal sops for vast sections of voters.
Steep fall in revenue, increase in borrowings, huge step-up in expenditure to provide succour for the Covid-19 affected population and a slowdown in economic growth had resulted in a steep spurt in fiscal deficits of the Centre and states. Privatisation and monetisation, therefore, offer an ideal panacea.
The two major Dravidian parties of Tamil Nadu have been vying with one another in offering a wide range of freebies that are budgeted to cost the exchequer Rs 94,100 crore during 2020-21 and this is expanding.
With elections to the state assembly just a few months away, political parties of Tamil Nadu are stepping up their campaigns. AIADMK, spearheaded by Chief Minister E K Palaniswami, has been vigorously campaigning across the state. Principal opposition DMK, led by M K Stalin, has been active in reaching out to villages spread across the state.
