VILLUPURAM: Chief Minister M K Stalin on Friday said the BJP is against “reservation and social justice” and there will be “no system of reservation” in the country if the saffron party is elected to power again at the centre.
Addressing a DMK rally at V Salai village in Villupuram, the CM sought votes for INDIA bloc candidates of Villupuram and Cuddalore parliamentary constituencies.
“The country is in grave danger. The reservation for BCs and MBCs, SC, STs and minorities is facing a great danger from the BJP,” the CM said.
“Not even 3% of the union government secretaries who run the country belong to backward communities. Don’t you want your children to study in the future? Don’t they want a good job? It is only in the last two-three generations that we have progressed in education and landed respectable jobs, but the BJP wants to destroy all of it. It wants to take the country back by a century,” he said.
Slamming the PMK for aligning with the BJP, Stalin said, “It is an opportunistic alliance as its leader Dr Ramadoss, who boasts of being a champion of social justice, has joined hands with a party that yearns to destroy social justice.”
“The PM is of the idea that wearing a dhoti and saying he likes idli will get him votes, but he doesn’t know the real pulse of Tamil Nadu,” Stalin said.
Mocking the AIADMK chief, Stalin said Edapaddi Palaniswami has mortgaged the whole party to BJP. “The claim that the two parties that destructed the idea of Tamil Nadu are not allies is a drama,” Stalin said.
Voting for BJP would trigger sectarianism and there will be religious riots across the country, Stalin warned.
