As leaders of the #INDIA bloc, including Madam Sonia Gandhi, my dear brother @RahulGandhi, respected Farooq Abdullah, esteemed comrades @SitaramYechury and @ComradeDRaja, gathered in New Delhi to pay heartfelt tributes on the birth anniversary and centenary completion of Muthamizharignar Kalaignar, we honour his legacy as not just a regional leader, but a national statesman.
Thalaivar Kalaignar's staunch advocacy for federalism and democracy played a pivotal role in nation-building. During turbulent times, he provided stability at the Union level, ensuring the government remained steady.
His key role in selecting many Prime Ministers and Presidents of India significantly shaped the country's political landscape.
With renewed vigour, we look forward to celebrating the triumph of our alliance on June 4th—a victory for the people of INDIA.

DMK president M.K. Stalin joined prominent national leaders of the INDIA alliance in New Delhi to mark the birth anniversary and centenary completion of former Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M. Karunanidhi. Leaders attending the commemorative gathering included Congress parliamentary chairperson Sonia Gandhi, Rahul Gandhi, National Conference president Farooq Abdullah, and Left leaders Sitaram Yechury and D. Raja.
Stalin described Karunanidhi as an astute national statesman whose steadfast advocacy for federalism, social justice, and constitutional democracy substantially shaped contemporary Indian politics. He recalled Karunanidhi's decisive interventions during coalition governments in New Delhi, where he played an instrumental role in selecting Prime Ministers and Presidents while maintaining national administrative stability during periods of acute political fragmentation.
The Chief Minister stressed that Karunanidhi's legacy demonstrated how regional political parties can effectively anchor national governance while safeguarding state rights. Gathering on the eve of the 2024 parliamentary election vote counting, Stalin expressed confidence that the collective commitment displayed by the INDIA bloc would deliver a decisive democratic outcome, revitalizing constitutional governance, securing sub-national rights, and preserving federal diversity across the democratic republic. This solidarity guides future efforts.
