இந்த ஆட்சியாளர்கள் கொள்ளையுடன் கொலைகளையும் கூசாமல் செய்பவர்கள் என்று நிரூபித்த நாள் இன்று! மே 22. தென்பாண்டி கடல் அலைகள் ஓய்ந்தாலும்,...

DMK president M.K. Stalin paid solemn homage to the thirteen unarmed citizens who were killed in cold blood during the brutal police firing on peaceful anti-Sterlite demonstrators in Thoothukudi on May 22, 2018. Stalin stated that May 22 stands as an eternal reminder of a merciless regime that unhesitatingly combined systemic administrative plunder with state-sponsored violence against its own democratic citizens.

Stalin declared that even if the waves of the southern sea fall silent, the harrowing echoes of the Thoothukudi police gunfire will never fade from Tamil collective memory. The bloodstains left by the AIADMK administration's lethal crackdown can never be washed clean by all the waters of the ocean, representing an indelible blot on the constitutional history of Tamil Nadu.

Stalin criticized the ruling establishment for systematically shielding the police officials and political masters responsible for ordering the fatal assault, while families of victims continued to await genuine judicial accountability. He pledged that the DMK will persistently fight until justice is delivered, perpetrators are punished under law, and permanent environmental protection is secured for the people of Thoothukudi across future generations.
