TN Assembly polls: CM Stalin to address over one lakh cadres in Virudhunagar

CM M.K. Stalin to address massive DMK youth conference in Virudhunagar, mobilising over 1 lakh cadres ahead of the Tamil Nadu Assembly elections.

"Tamil Nadu Will Never Bow Its Head - Conference Theme"

Chennai, Feb 7

With the Tamil Nadu Assembly elections approaching, political activity across the state has intensified, and as part of its mobilisation drive, the DMK's Youth Wing is hosting a large-scale South Zone Conference in Virudhunagar district on Saturday, in which Chief Minister M. K. Stalin is scheduled to deliver a special address.

The conference at Kalkurichi, under the theme 'Tamil Nadu Will Never Bow Its Head', is aimed at energising cadres and strengthening organisational unity ahead of the polls.

Over the past year, the DMK has organised a series of meetings and conventions to keep volunteers active and motivated. These include a General Committee meeting in Madurai, the 'Udhbirappae Vaa' outreach gathering, the DMK Mupperum Festival in Karur, a northern zone youth conference in Tiruvannamalai, and women's conferences in Tiruppur and Thanjavur.

The Virudhunagar event marks the continuation of this region-wise mobilisation effort.

Party sources said the conference will begin at 3 p.m. and is expected to draw more than one lakh administrators and functionaries from 20 organisational districts.

Youth Wing representatives from district, city, union, town, and panchayat levels are likely to attend.

In total, organisers estimate participation could reach nearly 1.5 lakh members. Extensive preparations have been made for the gathering across nearly 100 acres of land.

Facilities include a large pavilion, a main stage, dining arrangements for participants, and a special ramp-walk stage for the Chief Minister. Deputy Chief Minister and Youth Wing Secretary Udhayanidhi Stalin personally inspected the venue and reviewed arrangements earlier.

Ahead of the event, CM Stalin released a video message welcoming young cadres and praising Udhayanidhi's leadership of the Youth Wing.

In another video about the Virudhunagar meet, the Chief Minister asserted that the DMK's growing organisational strength had left opposition parties unsettled.

Political observers view the conference as a clear signal that the DMK is moving into campaign mode, relying heavily on its youth base to build momentum for the upcoming election battle.

1.5 lakh people is a massive gathering! The organisational strength is impressive. But I hope such large events don't cause too much disruption for the local residents in Virudhunagar. Traffic and noise pollution need to be managed responsibly.

The theme 'Tamil Nadu Will Never Bow Its Head' resonates deeply. It's about state pride and autonomy. As a Tamilian working in Delhi, I feel this sentiment strongly. The DMK has always championed Tamil identity. Let's see if this converts into votes.

Interesting to watch from a political strategy perspective. Building momentum through a series of regional conferences is smart. Udhayanidhi Stalin seems to be getting a lot of visibility. Is this grooming for a bigger role? The succession planning is quite clear.

While the show of strength is notable, I hope the focus remains on performance. The government should be judged on its work in education, healthcare, and infrastructure. Big rallies are fine, but what about the promises from last time? Just my two paise.

My brother is attending this conference! He's a town-level functionary and is really excited. For these cadres, it's not just politics, it's a sense of community and purpose. The dining arrangements for 1.5 lakh people itself is a huge task, respect for the organisers! 🙏
