Stressing that the DMK remaining in power was important for the development of Tamil Nadu and to protect the State, its president and Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M .K. Stalin asked partymen to begin work to capture all 40 Lok Sabha seats in Tamil Nadu and Puducherry in next Parliamentary election in 2024.
Giving away awards to partymen at the Mupperum Vizha here on Thursday, Mr. Stalin said that the Dravidian Model of rule of DMK was aimed at social justice, self respect, State autonomy, and right for language.
The Dravidian Model meant everything for all without any kind of discrimination, he added.
"We have some duties for the entire country. We need to ensure federalism, state autonomy, secularism, equality and social justice," he said.
Stating that the Centre was trying to dominate with GST, NEET and other anti-people policies and also by attempting to have a surrogate rule in the State through the Governor, he said he was giving equal importance for the party and the governance.
"We are in power only because we are the party working for the welfare of the State," he said.
