CHENNAI: In a veiled attack on BJP and AIADMK , Tamil Nadu chief minister and DMK supremo M K Stalin on Saturday said there was no place in the state for those who divided Tamils on the lines of religion and those who were helping them.
Responding to a recent remark by Union home minister Amit Shah that DMK should be eliminated, he said: “DMK is not a matchstick to be doused. We are the rising Sun. We will stand for our language and our soil.”
Ahead of launching DMK’s ‘Oraniyil Tamil Nadu’ campaign, Stalin wrote a letter to his party cadres saying BJP govt at the Centre was denying developmental projects to Tamil Nadu.
“They are boycotting schemes for Tamil Nadu, rejecting Tamil heritage, not allocating funds for Tamil language, and dividing people on the lines of religion. People will reject those who divide them based on religion and those who help do that,” the Tamil Nadu CM said.
Stalin will launch the ‘Oraniyil Tamil Nadu’ campaign from July 1 with the objective to make at least 30% of the voters in the state DMK members. Recently, the party’s IT wing launched an app for digital enrolment of members.
To make the campaign successful, Stalin held a meeting with district secretaries and other party functionaries virtually on Saturday.
