'' `` If we can add together the holdings of Mr. Karunanidhi 's , wives , sons , daughters , grandsons and granddaughters , no doubt , his family will be the richest in the world . Now you can understand as to why the State of Tamil Nadu has been entangled in the debt trap of over Rs .1 lakh crore , '' '' Ms. Jayalalithaa asked .

'' `` Are the people of the State not working hard ? Do they not have the habit of saving and do they not lead a thrift lifestyle . This is because the welfare schemes were formulated to further the interest of one family , '' '' she said . She said that the DMK-led government had failed on many fronts . Power cuts , spiralling price of essential commodities , deteriorating law and order situation , corruption and rice smuggling have hit people hard . . It was high time that this government was thrown out , she added .
