DMK MLAs Wear Black Shirts Ahead of Tamil Nadu Budget

DMK MLAs Wear Black Shirts Ahead of Tamil Nadu Budget

In a place in India called Tamil Nadu, the grown-ups who run the state showed everyone a big money plan called a budget.

The budget tells people how the government will spend money in the coming year.

Some of the politicians, who belong to a group called the DMK, did not like the plan at all.

They wore black shirts to the big meeting to show they were upset.

Their leader, Mr. Stalin, said the plan was just a copy of older plans and did not help farmers enough.

Another DMK leader said the government is borrowing too much money, like using a credit card too much.

The government says its plan will make Tamil Nadu very rich and successful by 2031.

It wants to fix thousands of schools and give laptops to college students.

So some people think the budget is great, while others think it is a waste.

That is why everyone is talking about it.
