DMK president and Chief Minister M.K. Stalin took part in the golden jubilee celebrations of the Labour Progressive Federation (LPF), the trade union wing of his party, and said its members had the responsibility to take various government programmes to the people.
During his speech at Kalaivanar Arangam in Chennai, Mr. Stalin said great personalities such as ‘Sinthanai Sirpi’ Singaravelar and ‘Thamizhthendral’ Thiru.Vi.Ka. emerged as leaders from the trade unions.
The LPF should continue to groom similar leaders. The DMK president also expressed his wish that the sons and daughters of LPF activists should become doctors, engineers and lawyers.
Mr. Stalin called upon LPF functionaries to take care of their health. “Please take care of your families. Make your children study well. You could make sure that they reach colleges and get higher education. That is the greatest asset you could give them.”
DMK general secretary Duraimurugan, party’s principal secretary K.N. Nehru, deputy general secretary K. Ponmudi, senior leader P.K. Sekarbabu, DMK MP and LPF general secretary M. Shanmugam and senior party functionaries participated in the function.

“Walk for Equality was aimed at creating a movement to crush the forces attempting to divide the people along religious line, said Marumalarchi Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (MDMK) leader Vaiko. Concluding his 140-kilometre ‘Samathuva nadai payanam’ from Tiruchi to Madurai on Monday, Mr. Vaiko said, “The Hindutva forces are actively attempting to drive a wedge between communities through various incidents, most notably the Thirupparankundram deepam controversy, using identity-based politics to achieve their divisive motives.”
