Chief Minister and DMK president M.K. Stalin on Monday made it clear to the party’s district secretaries that personal differences should not be allowed to affect the party’s prospects in the April 23 Assembly election. He warned that he would immediately take action against anyone who sought to create problems.
“I keep the party’s interest above that of individuals,” he said, addressing a meeting at Anna Arivalayam, the party headquarters.
Mr. Stalin said the time had come to reap the benefits of the hard work done over the past year, and the election was like running a relay race. “Not one of us can afford to be laid-back. We must work twice as hard to harvest victory,” he said.
The Chief Minister said no one should think the party president would not be aware of what was happening in each of the 234 Assembly constituencies. “This Stalin has eyes and ears in all the 234 constituencies. I will get details directly. Even now, I am receiving information,” he said.
