Later, Finance Minister P.T.R. Palanivel Thiagarajan tweeted that the Chief Minister asked his department to chart a balanced course as the State battled the second wave of COVID-19.
“He directed us to ensure a path to delivering our poll promises even as we structured our finances. We briefed him on the GST Council developments as well,” the Minister added.
