Social media was filled with tributes by his followers. Many remembered the role Karunanidhi played when he was Chief Minister, in supporting JD(S) leader H D Devegowda in his successful bid to become the Prime Minister.
“Tamil Nadu has witnessed the loss of two great leaders in such a short duration. Karunanidhi was a strong leader of the DMK and his death is sure to weaken the party a lot. We will hold a memorial meeting for him on Wednesday,” said Ashish Parthasarathy, a resident of Jayanagar.
