‘INDIA’ Must Win To Prevent Country From Becoming Manipur: Tamil Nadu CM MK Stalin

Tamil Nadu CM MK Stalin has launched a scathing attack on BJP-led government saying the party resorts to communalism to cover up issues.

Tamil Nadu CM MK Stalin has said the INDIA bloc must win to prevent the whole of India from becoming Manipur and Haryana.

In Manipur large-scale ethnic violence have occurred since May this year, and there have been communal violence in Haryana after a religious procession was attacked.

Earlier, the BJP slammed Stalin for attacking Prime Minister Narendra Modi in the first episode of his podcast series. 

The party said: “PM Modi never promised Rs 15 lakh would be deposited in everyone's account.”

It added the claims in the podcast are "lies".

In his podcast Stalin had claimed the BJP didn't fulfil any pre-poll promise regarding social welfare in its last nine years at the Centre.

“Rs 15 lakh each were not deposited in all citizens' accounts as promised, farmers' incomes didn't double, two crore jobs per year were promised but didn't happen,” Stalin said.

He said: “The INDIA alliance must win to prevent the whole of India from becoming Manipur and Haryana”.

He also called upon the people to "carve out a multicultural and diverse India".

He alleged the BJP resorts to communalism to cover up issues like public sector undertakings "being dismantled and handed over to friendly corporations".

“Air India being sold to a private player, and airports and seaports handed over to corporations that are close to the BJP," Stalin alleged. 

He also referred to the 2002 Gujarat riots, saying the "hatred sown in Gujarat in 2002" has resulted in sectarian violence in Manipur and communal clashes in Haryana in 2023.

“The India alliance was formed to restore social justice, social harmony, federalism, secular politics and socialism”, Stalin said.

He issued a grim warning that "nobody can save India if this is not stopped now".

"DMK has always been at the forefront whenever there's a threat to federalism,"Stalin said.

The BJP has hit back, saying it the DMK that divides the country on religion, caste, and language.
