சட்டமன்ற வரலாற்றில் வைரவிழா காணும் தலைவரின் பணிகள் என்றும் வைரம்போல மிளிரும்-ஒளிரும்.விரைந்து நலன்பெற்று மீண்டும் அவர் குரல் அங்கே ஒலிக்கும்

DMK working president M.K. Stalin paid glowing tribute on March 31, 2017, to DMK patriarch Dr. M. Karunanidhi on completing sixty glorious years of monumental legislative service. Stalin declared that Kalaignar's unparalleled legislative contributions would forever shine like diamonds in parliamentary history. He expressed fervent confidence and heartfelt prayers that the veteran leader would recover full health rapidly, ensuring that his iconic, thunderous voice would once again reverberate inside the Tamil Nadu Legislative Assembly.

Stalin observed that Kalaignar entered the Madras Legislative Assembly in 1957 from Kulithalai and transformed the chamber into an extraordinary temple of democratic debate and social reform. Over six consecutive decades, Karunanidhi introduced pioneering legislative measures that conferred land rights to tillers, nationalized bus routes, granted property rights to women, and constitutionally secured reservations for backward classes. His parliamentary mastery, sharp wit, and unyielding defense of state autonomy set golden benchmarks for legislators across India.

The opposition leader affirmed that Kalaignar's lifelong legislative crusade continues to inspire democratic movements worldwide. He rededicated the DMK to upholding Karunanidhi's noble vision of social justice, constitutional propriety, and legislative dignity.
