மோடியிடம் மருத்துவர் ஐயா இதற்கு கேரண்டி கேட்டாரா? #Vote4INDIA #Elections2024 #DMK https://t.co/OBKgYlcKLE

Tamil Nadu Chief Minister and DMK president M.K. Stalin questioned Pattali Makkal Katchi founder Dr. S. Ramadoss regarding his decision to ally with the Bharatiya Janata Party for the 2024 Lok Sabha elections. Stalin asked whether the PMK leader demanded or received any binding guarantee from Prime Minister Narendra Modi to conduct a nationwide caste-based census and expand reservations for backward classes. The accompanying video highlighted the glaring contradiction between the PMK's stated commitment to social justice and the BJP's ideological opposition to reservation expansion.

Stalin stressed that the DMK administration has consistently advocated for a comprehensive national caste census, passing an official resolution in the Tamil Nadu Legislative Assembly demanding that the Union government conduct the exercise alongside the decennial census. He noted that the Union BJP regime systematically refused to undertake a caste enumeration and actively curtailed federal social justice policies. Stalin observed that political leaders who claim to champion marginalized communities compromise their core principles when they join hands with sectarian parties.

The Chief Minister affirmed that the electorate will hold opportunistic alliances accountable at the polls, urging voters to support the INDIA bloc to protect constitutional affirmative action.
