DMK President and Chief Minister M.K. Stalin delivered the presidential address and conferred the party's highest annual honors during the grand DMK 75 Mupperum Vizha conference held in Vellore, broadcast live statewide. Stalin presented the prestigious Periyar, Anna, Kalaignar, Pavendhar, and Professor awards to veteran leaders and scholars whose lifelong dedication, intellectual writings, and sacrifices strengthened the Dravidian movement through decades of political turmoil.

Addressing the sea of party cadres, the Chief Minister emphasized that honoring veteran stalwarts reaffirms the DMK's foundational commitment to social justice, state autonomy, and rationalist principles. He recalled how former Chief Minister M. Karunanidhi instituted the Mupperum Vizha to celebrate the intertwined anniversaries of Thanthai Periyar's birthday, Perarignar Anna's birthday, and the founding of the DMK. Stalin stated that these foundational roots provide the ideological bedrock for the current Dravidian Model administration.

The Chief Minister exhorted party workers to carry the inspiring spirit of the Vellore conference into every polling booth across Tamil Nadu. He stressed that preserving constitutional democracy and federal rights requires defeating the central BJP regime in the 2024 parliamentary elections. Stalin concluded by urging cadres to work with absolute dedication to ensure complete victory for the INDIA alliance.
