Tamil Nadu Chief Minister J Jayalalithaa on Saturday asserted her government would not sacrifice the state`s rights at any point.

Chennai: Tamil Nadu Chief Minister J
Jayalalithaa on Saturday asserted her government would not sacrifice
the state`s rights at any point and vowed to create a `golden
era` in the state.

"We will not sacrifice Tamil Nadu`s rights at any
point or any stage. We will stand united; work hard (and) not
sacrifice Tamil Nadu`s rights at any point or any stage," she
said in her New Year greetings to the people.

Her remarks comes against the backdrop of the resurfacing
of the controversy over Kerala`s move for building a new dam
across Mullaperiyar which Tamil Nadu is opposing tooth and
nail.

Jayalalithaa, whose AIADMK stormed to power in the April
2011 elections with a landslide victory over archrival DMK,
said her government was working with the aim of making Tamil
Nadu a pioneer in all the sectors in a golden era.
The government "under your sister is effectively doing
this," she said.
