RAMANATHAPURAM: Continuing his statewide campaign for the Secular Progressive Alliance, Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M. K. Stalin on Sunday morning undertook a roadshow in Paramakudi, engaging with members of the public and seeking support for alliance candidates.
DMK leader M. K. Stalin is expected to participate in public meetings scheduled in Ramanathapuram district’s Paramakudi and Thoothukudi later on Sunday evening. As part of his visit, he canvassed votes for DMK candidate K. K. Kathiravan in the Paramakudi constituency during the morning hours.
The Chief Minister began his morning walk from Netaji Salai and covered key areas, including Vaisiyar Street and Periya Bazaar, interacting with residents along the way.
He later proceeded through Periya Kadaiveethi, Gandhi Road, and the Muthaalamman Temple junction, before visiting the Paramakudi vegetable market. There, he held discussions with traders, youth, and women, appealing for electoral support.
Stalin also visited the modern fish market, where he spoke with fish vendors and customers. In a more personal outreach, he travelled to Emaneswaram and met senior party functionary and weaver Santharaman at his residence. He also interacted with local weavers in Perumal Koil Street and visited one of their homes to speak with family members.
Addressing reporters later, Stalin dismissed remarks made by AIADMK leader Edappadi K. Palaniswami, stating that they reflected “frustration born out of impending defeat.” He added that walking among people was part of his daily routine, whether in Chennai or elsewhere. “Wherever I go, people assure me of their support for the DMK. It is encouraging,” he said.
Responding to a query on political competition, Stalin refrained from commenting on claims about other parties, but alleged that the Bharatiya Janata Party was “entering Tamil Nadu wearing the mask of the AIADMK.”
He also declined to comment on questions related to the alleged leak of the film Jananayagan, maintaining a brief “no comments” stance.
