The AIADMK leader added that the price of oil should be determined based on the refining cost, not international prices.
Jayalalithaa said the oil pricing policy would be changed when the new government, of which the AIADMK would be a part, comes into power at the centre. "Oil prices would remain stable throughout the year," she promised.
Referring to foreign investment made through Mauritius, Jayalalithaa said the central government had postponed the implementation of tax avoidance measures to 2015 owing to foreign pressures.
Jayalalithaa charged the centre with betraying Tamil Nadu's interests by not setting up the Cauvery Management Board to oversee sharing of Cauvery river water, by its failure to protect the state's fishermen from the Sri Lankan Navy, by supporting the ruling regime in the island nation instead of imposing economic sanctions for actions against the Tamils there, by not taking action to retrieve Katchatheevu, low allocation of kerosene, non-supply of power from the central pool and other issues.
"It is not enough to have a people's government at the centre. It should be a government of Tamil Nadu, a government in which the AIADMK is a part. Only then the rights of Tamils would be established."
