India belongs to all its people, not to one culture or one ideology. On this #ConstitutionDay, we reaffirm our resolve to resist every force that tries to shrink Babasaheb #Ambedkar’s vision.
We will do everything required to uphold true federalism as enshrined in our #Constitution and protect the rights of every State.
The real tribute to our Constitution is to defend our Republic from those who fear its promise of justice, liberty, equality, and fraternity.
Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M.K. Stalin marked Constitution Day with a statement reaffirming his government's commitment to federalism and states' rights. He said India belongs to all its people, not to any single culture or ideology, and invoked B.R. Ambedkar, the principal architect of the Indian Constitution, to underline that his administration would resist any force attempting to diminish Ambedkar's vision of an inclusive Republic. Stalin stated that upholding true federalism, as enshrined in the Constitution, and protecting the rights of every state remained central to his government's agenda. He argued that the most meaningful tribute to the Constitution lies in defending the Republic against those who fear its promises of justice, liberty, equality, and fraternity. The statement reflects Stalin's continuing public positioning on Centre-State relations, an issue that has recurred frequently in his communications regarding Tamil Nadu's dealings with the Union government.
