Defence Minister Rajnath Singh slammed Congress and Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK) over the defeat of the amendments to the Nari Shakti Vandhan Adhiniyam.

Speaking at a poll rally, Singh said the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) would provide 33% reservation for women.

He claimed DMK stood for 'Dushprayogam Muraikedu Kutram', which translates to misuse of power, irregularities, and crime in Tamil.

Singh also promised to restart the Karthigai Deepam tradition atop the Thiruparankundram hill if the BJP comes to power.

At another rally, Singh said Tamil Nadu is one of the only two states with a defence corridor and promised to provide ₹9,000 crore as subsidy every year to farmers.

He also promised free gas cylinders and subsidies during festivals.
