Chief Minister and DMK president M.K. Stalin on Wednesday said that the upcoming Parliamentary elections would answer whether democracy, the Constitution and the electoral system would prevail in India.
In Delhi, the country’s capital, the BJP government at the Centre had created an environment that was worse than a battlefield to oppress the farmers, who were fighting for their rights, Mr. Stalin said, in a letter to party cadre.
Regional parties such as the DMK and its allies had the ability to take on the BJP, which was indulging in sectarian politics. That was why Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Home Minister Amit Shah and BJP president J.P. Nadda were speaking about the DMK at every opportunity. The DMK was giving them sleepless nights, Mr. Stalin said.
