திருச்சியில் தேர்தல் பரப்புரையைத் தொடங்குவதற்கு முன், இன்று ஆளுநர் மாளிகையிலேயே எனது பரப்புரை தொடங்கிவிட்டது! 'ராஜ் பவனில்' தொடங்கிய இது...

DMK president and Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M.K. Stalin framed the 2024 parliamentary election as an epochal democratic battle, declaring that the movement that began at Raj Bhavan will culminate at Rashtrapati Bhavan in New Delhi. Stalin addressed a massive election kickoff rally in Tiruchirappalli shortly after the Supreme Court compelled Tamil Nadu Governor R.N. Ravi to swear in reinstated Cabinet Minister K. Ponmudy. He noted that the apex court's stern rebuke to the Governor proved that appointed functionaries cannot undermine the sovereign will of elected legislatures.

Stalin stated that the constitutional triumph achieved in Chennai symbolizes the wider national struggle against central authoritarianism. He highlighted how the Union BJP government has systematically deployed gubernatorial offices, tax agencies, and central investigators to subvert opposition-ruled state governments. The Chief Minister pointed out that the DMK-led alliance has consistently resisted these anti-federal maneuvers through legal determination and popular democratic mobilization, defending the dignity of the state assembly and its elected representatives.

Stalin expressed absolute confidence that the democratic awakening launched from Tamil Nadu will sweep across the nation on April 19. He affirmed that the INDIA alliance will dismantle central authoritarianism and establish responsive federal governance in New Delhi.
