அரசியல் காழ்ப்புணர்வுடன் வெளியான அரசாணையை ரத்து செய்து மீண்டும் என் நேர்முக உதவியாளரை நியமித்தது உயர்நீதிமன்றம் #TNAssembly https://t.co/QhXt3O6STC

DMK leader M.K. Stalin welcomed the Madras High Court verdict on November 23, 2016, which quashed a politically motivated government order issued by the AIADMK administration and ordered the immediate reinstatement of his personal assistant in the office of the Leader of the Opposition.

Stalin explained that the state government had arbitrarily issued a vindictive administrative order terminating his personal assistant's services in clear violation of established assembly norms and civil service regulations. Recognizing this blatant abuse of power aimed at handicapping the opposition leader's administrative secretariat, Stalin pursued determined legal action to defend institutional dignity. The High Court's decisive ruling set aside the state's partisan directive, vindicating the fundamental principle of fair administrative support for constitutional functionaries.

The opposition leader affirmed that the judicial verdict delivered a stinging rebuke to the ruling party's vendetta politics and disregard for legislative decorum. Stalin stated that the Leader of the Opposition holds a vital constitutional role in representing public interest, which cannot be undermined through petty bureaucratic harassment. Stalin reaffirmed his unwavering commitment to continue upholding democratic conventions, transparency, and assembly propriety against arbitrary executive overreach.
