Indian politician disputes PM Modi's claim of increased funding to Tamil Nadu, arguing for per capita comparison.

Senior Congress leader P. Chidambaram has disputed Prime Minister Narendra Modi's claim that the current government has allocated three times more funds to Tamil Nadu than previous regimes. Chidambaram argues that economic metrics naturally increase over time and suggests the comparison should be based on per capita expenditure. Meanwhile, PM Modi has defended the allocation, stating it has contributed to the state's economic and industrial growth.
