Reacting to the felicitations, Tamilisai said, “I am committed to provide a transparent administration in Puducherry that will meet the requirements of every section of people.”
She said her plan was that Puducherry should make greater progress in health and welfare sectors. She said the weekly meetings to review the implementation of schemes to keep Puducherry safe from Covid-19 were helpful.
“The Puducherry administration did not go in for total lockdown but adopted restrictions without hitting the livelihood sources of the people,” she said.
Later, she released a book “A Year of Positivity” highlighting her performance during the last one year and the first copy was received by Chief Minister.
Speaker of the Territorial Assembly R Selvam, Ministers, legislators and officials from Central and State government departments were among those present. Tamilisai Soundararajan succeeded Kiran Bedi in the post of Lt Governor Puducherry.
