The unity and success of the secular democratic forces in Tamil Nadu should be replicated at the national level to dislodge the BJP from power at the Centre, Chief Minister M.K.Stalin said here on Tuesday.
“We stand at a critical juncture and have a duty to protect democracy in the country. If we fail to do it, Tamil Nadu, with a history of 3,000-4,000 years, will be wiped off. Allowing the BJP to continue in power will be detrimental to the future of Tamil Nadu, Tamils and India,” Mr. Stalin said, speaking at the inauguration of Kalaignar Kottam, a memorial for his father and former Chief Minister M. Karunanidhi at Tiruvarur.
To prevent the BJP from returning to power, the secular democratic forces should come together as they did in Tamil Nadu. The same kind of unified action and coordination should be replicated at the national level. “We need to win, and before that, we need unity.”
