Chennai, May 6: As a mark of counter-criticism of the opposition DMK, the AIADMK supremo Jayalalithaa launched a few more freebies. Alleging that the free laptops offered by DMK is accompanied by doubled-up cable connection prices, Amma added free laptops and wi-fi facilities. Some of the other sops offered by her include mobile phone for all ration card holder and free 100 units of power. Saying that it will benefit 78 lakh customers, she further announced that these customers do not have to pay the bills. This came in the wake of the poll campaign by Congress President Sonia Gandhi, along with the ally DMK President M Karunanidhi. In fact, Amma broke the tradition of releasing the party manifesto in the headquarters and launched it in a public rally.
