Kalaignar’s memorial is a ‘first wonder’ on the second longest beach in the world, says Stalin

Chief Minister M.K. Stalin on Monday called upon the people to visit the Karunanidhi Memorial to see the late leader’s life and ‘live’ with the late DMK stalwart.

In a televised speech delivered during the inauguration of the renovated premises on the Marina beachfront that houses the memorials of former Chief Ministers C.N. Annadurai and Karunanidhi, Mr. Stalin said Kalaignar’s memorial was a “first wonder” on the second longest beach in the world.

“’Kalaignar’ means struggle. That is what his life and history is telling the world. Not just struggle, this memorial also says ‘Kalaignar’ means victory,” Mr. Stalin said. The memorial, much like his welfare programmes, stands as a testimony to the late leader’s accomplishments, he said.
