CHENNAIDMK president warns of BJP threat to Constitution, urges citizens to protect democracy in critical election.
DMK president and Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M K Stalin on Sunday, April 14, 2024 charged that the BJP is perilously intent on dismantling the Constitution.
With a voracious appetite for regression, they plot to thrust our nation back by two centuries, he said in a post on X (formerly Twitter).
India is on the brink of the most critical election in its history. It is the solemn duty of every citizen to safeguard the beacon of democracy ignited by the revolutionary Dr. B.R. Ambedkar, Mr. Stalin said on the occasion of Ambedkar’s birth anniversary.
“We must rally behind the profound wisdom and enduring spirit of Dr. B.R. Ambedkar, the new-age Buddha, to secure a truly egalitarian society,” he said.
The Election Commission of India will hold a press conference on June 3, a day before the counting of votes polled in the Lok Sabha polls. Till the 2019 parliamentary polls, deputy election commissioners used to hold media briefings after each phase of polls, but the practice has been done away with.
