The official press note and public reporting record a Rule 110 statement in which Vijay announced drinking-water projects worth about Rs 4,800 crore and said cases filed against farmers and teachers who took part in peaceful protests between 2021 and 2026 would be withdrawn. The water package includes a 400 MLD desalination plant for North Chennai and nearby areas, Avadi 24x7 supply work, renovation of older combined water-supply schemes, Kilpauk treatment-plant expansion, and additional drinking-water works for Madurai and Cuddalore. TVK Tracker marks this as a combined urban-water and civil-liberties update. It is not complete until project sanctions, tender timelines, land and environmental approvals, scheme-wise budgets, case-withdrawal government orders, court filings, affected-person lists, and district-level execution data become public.
