#Lockdown காலத்தில் துயருறும் எளியவர்களின் பசி நீக்க, தமிழ் மக்களின் கரங்கள் நீளும்போது, அதைத் தடுக்க உத்தரவிட எவராலும் இயலாது; தானும் செய்யாது...

DMK president M.K. Stalin issued a passionate defense of public charity, condemning the state government's attempts to prohibit voluntary organizations and political cadres from feeding hungry citizens during the lockdown. Stalin declared that no administrative directive can legitimately suppress the generous spirit of Tamil society when vulnerable laborers and homeless individuals face starvation. He termed official orders that prevent charitable citizens from extending assistance as autocratic and deeply insensitive to ground realities.

Stalin observed that thousands of stranded migrants, informal sector workers, and disabled individuals depend entirely on community kitchens and civic food drives for their daily survival. When the state machinery fails to deliver comprehensive door-to-door food supplies, shutting down private benevolence amounts to administrative cruelty. He noted that true democratic governance encourages civic participation and partners with community groups rather than penalizing charitable initiatives during emergencies.

Stalin demanded that the administration immediately rescind arbitrary restrictions and establish safe operational protocols for relief workers. He instructed DMK volunteers to continue serving affected neighborhoods while strictly observing safety regulations. Stalin reaffirmed that compassionate governance must place human survival above bureaucratic control and political insecurity during major humanitarian crises.
