Coimbatore: The Tamil Nadu government's free bicycle distribution scheme was implemented at the Ashokapuram Government Higher Secondary School in Periyanaickenpalayam East Union of Coimbatore district on Monday, October 8. The event saw the participation of Karthik, the DMK Secretary of Periyanaickenpalayam Union, who graced the occasion as a special guest.



The ceremony was attended by both male and female students who were the beneficiaries of this welfare scheme. The distribution of free bicycles is part of the state government's initiative to support students and encourage education, particularly for those from economically weaker sections.
