#SalemWithDMK #வெல்வோம்_ஒன்றாக #VoteForDMK

Arriving in Salem amidst massive public excitement under #SalemWithDMK, M.K. Stalin underscored the DMK's uncompromising defense of the state's public sector assets. The historic Salem Steel Plant, a symbol of Tamil Nadu’s industrial self-reliance established through Kalaignar Karunanidhi's tireless efforts, faced repeated attempts at privatization by the Union government.

Stalin highlighted that his administration firmly opposed any moves to sell off the iconic plant to private corporate conglomerates, protecting thousands of public sector jobs. Along with industrial defense, the DMK government expanded the Mettur Surplus Water Scheme, filling dry irrigation tanks across Salem's farming belts. The grateful public reception demonstrated that Salem recognizes the DMK as the sole protector of its industrial heritage and rural livelihoods.
