MK Stalin Jabs Vijay Over "Rs 10 Lakh Crore Debt" Claim After Oath Ceremony

Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK) chief and former Tamil Nadu chief minister MK Stalin was quick to don the Opposition hat on Sunday, within an hour of his successor Vijay's emotionally-charged speech, where he claimed that he had inherited a state with Rs 10 lakh crore debt. Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK) chief Vijay, in a speech after being worn in as the Chief Minister, said, "The DMK emptied state coffers and we have taken over with Rs 10 lakh crore debt." He added that his government may release a white paper on the state's finances to ensure transparency.
