DMK govt. prepared to enact laws to ensure social equality, says Chief Minister
Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M.K. Stalin on Friday said the DMK government was prepared to enact laws to ensure social equality.
Accepting The Amebdkar Sudar Award 2021, presented by Viduthalai Chiruthaigal Katchi (VCK) leader Thol. Thirumavalavan in Chennai, the DMK leader noted even after many years inequality still exists on social and economic fronts.
“Though there are laws, there needs to be a change in mindsets. But we cannot wait for that. There needs to be more laws on the one hand and a campaign on the other to eliminate inequality. The DMK government is ready to enact laws to ensure equality,” Mr. Stalin said. He said the award motivates him to do more for the upliftment of oppressed communities. VCK’s The Periyar Oli Award was presented to MDMK leader Vaiko.
