A consumer commission has upheld a lower forum's order directing Indian Railways to pay Rs 2 lakh in compensation to a family whose trip to Amritsar was disrupted.

Stalin Slams TVK Budget as Rehash of Dravidian Model With No Fresh Vision

Tamil Nadu opposition leader M.K. Stalin criticized the TVK government's latest budget, calling it a wasteful exercise that merely repackaged existing schemes.

The state's finance minister presented the budget with an ambitious target of building a $1.5 trillion economy by 2031. Other opposition parties joined in, raising concerns over unmet election promises and rising debt levels. The budget did include spending allocations across schools, higher education, and various welfare programmes.
