On the occasion of the birth anniversary of former Prime Minister #VPSingh, I pay homage to a revolutionary leader who was steadfast in his commitment to uplift the backward classes. He fearlessly championed the cause of Social Justice, emboldening everyone to assert that #ReservationIsOurRight.
The legacy of Thiru V.P. Singh intertwines with the spirit of our leader Thalaivar Kalaignar as they shared a common goal of empowering the underprivileged. May his thoughts continue to guide us towards a brighter and more equitable future.

Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M.K. Stalin paid respectful homage to former Prime Minister V.P. Singh on his birth anniversary, honoring him as a revolutionary national statesman who sacrificed high political office to deliver social justice for India's backward classes. Stalin celebrated Singh's historic courage in implementing the recommendations of the Mandal Commission in 1990, providing 27 percent statutory reservation in central government jobs. He highlighted that Singh's momentous decision shattered institutional monopolies and empowered millions of disadvantaged youth to assert that reservation is an undeniable constitutional right.
The Chief Minister underscored the profound ideological fraternity and political partnership that bound V.P. Singh with former Chief Minister M. Karunanidhi. Both stalwarts shared an unwavering commitment toward federalism, secularism, and affirmative empowerment of historically marginalized communities. Stalin noted that when Karunanidhi urged the Union government to implement the Mandal report, V.P. Singh acted with resolute moral conviction despite facing intense conservative backlash and parliamentary sabotage from reactionary political forces.
Stalin affirmed that the DMK government remains committed to perpetuating V.P. Singh's egalitarian principles through the All India Federation for Social Justice. He declared that Singh's vision will continue inspiring democratic battles for nationwide equality.
