Tamil Nadu's 2025-26 budget logo replaces the Indian rupee symbol (₹) with the Tamil letter 'ரூ' (Roo).
The government emphasizes using Tamil within the budget, aligning with the 15 languages present in Indian currency.
The logo features the slogan "Ellarkum Ellam" (everything for everyone), highlighting inclusiveness.
The promotional video included a Sangam period Purananooru verse in praise of the Chera King Cheraman Palai Paadiiya Perumkadungo.
BJP's K. Annamalai criticized the move, stating the rupee symbol (₹) was designed by a Tamilian and is used across India.
The Indian rupee symbol (₹) was designed by D. Udaya Kumar, the son of a former DMK MLA.
