போராடும் விவசாயிகளுக்கு ஆதரவான உண்ணாநிலை அறப்போராட்டத்தில் எனது உரை. https://t.co/fBzGtFoYG7

DMK president M.K. Stalin delivered an inspiring opening address at the commencement of the day-long hunger strike organized in Chennai by the Secular Progressive Alliance to champion farmers rights. Stalin observed that peasant communities from across the country had taken to the streets in unprecedented numbers because the three central farm laws directly jeopardize their land rights, crop prices, and economic autonomy. He commended the resolute discipline of protesting agriculturalists, describing their agitation as a historic defense of India democratic soul and food sovereignty.

Stalin criticized the central government for passing sweeping agricultural legislations through voice votes without parliamentary debate or formal consultation with state administrations. He argued that subjecting primary producers to corporate dispute settlement mechanisms outside civil court jurisdiction strips smallholder farmers of legal remedies and institutional protection. Stalin declared that the DMK, having pioneered transformative welfare schemes like free agricultural electricity and farmer markets under M. Karunanidhi, will always remain at the frontline of agrarian advocacy.

The inaugural address established a resolute, principled tone for the day-long demonstration in Chennai. Stalin affirmed that solidarity with farmers is a fundamental moral duty that transcends partisan electoral politics.
