Governor Arlekar delivered the policy address and praised the new administration for implementing a series of measures within weeks of assuming office. The Governor highlighted the closure of 717 liquor outlets located near educational institutions and places of worship, describing the move as one of the government's early actions aimed at social reform.
The address also underscored the establishment of dedicated anti-narcotics forces and the administration's efforts to curb the illicit liquor trade. In addition, the Governor referred to measures undertaken to address the state's debt burden and strengthen fiscal management.
Supporters of the ruling Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam described the developments as a historic transformation in Tamil Nadu's political landscape. Opposition parties, however, voiced criticism over the new government's policies and decisions.
The first session of the 17th Tamil Nadu Legislative Assembly came amid a dramatic shift in the state's political order, ending decades of dominance by the Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam and the All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam. The developments have marked the beginning of a new chapter in Tamil Nadu politics and have drawn widespread attention across the state.
