PMK leader Sowmya Anbumani Ramadoss welcomed several measures in the Tamil Nadu Budget, including the proposed Right to Public Services law, welfare schemes such as Annan Seer Thittam, and initiatives for senior citizens. However, she said the Budget fell short on agriculture, alleging inadequate allocations for irrigation, farm development and cooperative loan waivers. She also questioned reduced spending on school education, sought greater investment in public infrastructure and sanitation, and called for permanent government recruitment. Ramadoss further expressed disappointment over the absence of fresh measures on phased prohibition, arguing that stronger action on liquor policy would benefit women and rural communities. Her remarks echoed PMK's earlier demand for higher agricultural spending in the State Budget. #SowmyaAnbumani #PMK #TamilNaduBudget #Chennai #Agriculture #Farmers #Education #Irrigation #Prohibition #TNPolitics #Budget2026 #TamilNadu Thank you for watching our v
