In a significant development, Tamil Nadu Finance Minister K A Sengottaiyan hinted at the possibility of an upcoming Cabinet expansion, underscoring that such decisions rest solely with Chief Minister C Joseph Vijay.
Speaking at Coimbatore airport, Sengottaiyan drew parallels with former Chief Minister J Jayalalithaa's strategy of initially constituting a smaller Cabinet, subsequently expanding its size as required.
The minister also criticized AIADMK's leadership, particularly targeting Edappadi K Palaniswami, whilst questioning journalists on their awareness of the state's financial health.
