A day after Prime Minister Narendra Modi said it was time to drive the DMK away from Tamil Nadu, DMK president and Chief Minister M.K. Stalin on Thursday, February 29, 2024 said the PM had been repeatedly visiting Tamil Nadu, but the fear of defeat could be seen on his face.
“The Prime Minister’s speech claiming to crush and destroy the DMK, has brought disrepute to the post he holds. It is in the history of Tamil Nadu as to what happened to those who started to crush and destroy the DMK,” Mr. Stalin said in his letter to his party cadre.
The DMK president said he would, however, not say that the BJP would not live on. “Our Kalaignar [late DMK leader Karunanidhi] did not groom us like that. The BJP has the right to remain in the democratic set up as a political party. Let me wish the BJP to become a good Opposition, as they failed as a ruling party,” he stated.
