தமிழ்நாட்டுக்கு மட்டுமல்ல; புதுச்சேரிக்கும் சேர்த்தே என் குரல் எப்போதும் ஒலிக்கும்! #PuducherryWithDMK #VoteForDMK

Championing the democratic rights of neighboring Puducherry with the resonant declaration that his voice will always speak for Puducherry alongside Tamil Nadu, M.K. Stalin challenged the central government's authoritarian interference in the Union Territory. For years, appointed Lieutenant Governors have systematically undermined the elected government, obstructing welfare policies and subverting democratic mandates.

Stalin reiterated the DMK’s steadfast demand for immediate, unconditional full statehood for Puducherry. He pledged that Tamil Nadu stands as an older brother, ready to extend administrative, economic, and logistical support to protect Puducherry’s unique cultural identity and democratic self-governance. Citizens across Puducherry welcomed Stalin’s fraternal solidarity, celebrating a leader who treats their dignity as his own.
