DMK Government Will Block BJP’s Religious Polarisation Attempts: Stalin
CM declares Dravidian model shields Tamil Nadu from communalism.
Chief Minister M K Stalin intensified his criticism of the Bharatiya Janata Party's alleged promotion of religious hatred, asserting that the Dravidian model government staunchly opposes any communal disruptions introduced by the saffron party in Tamil Nadu, ensuring no space for such divisive politics under the current DMK administration.
Stalin accused the BJP of attempting to undermine the state's social harmony by stirring religious frenzy, emphasizing that Tamil Nadu's residents remain united and resistant to these tactics, which he claimed would ultimately fail, during his address at the inauguration of the new collectorate building in Kallakurichi district.
Highlighting interfaith harmony in the state, where Hindus visit dargahs, Muslims participate in Chithirai Thiruvizha, and Christians celebrate Pongal in churches, Stalin declared that this peaceful coexistence unsettles the BJP, but the Dravidian model would safeguard it against any interference.

Reflecting on the previous AIADMK regime's tenure from 2011 to 2021 as a period of decline for Tamil Nadu, Stalin credited the DMK's governance with revitalizing the state, predicting public support for its re-election in the 2026 assembly polls, while showcasing achievements like providing 7,965 houses under the Kalaignar Kanavu Illam scheme, issuing 34,518 house-site pattas, and granting forest rights certificates to 3,871 tribal families in Kalvarayan Hills.
Despite perceived neglect from the central government, Stalin affirmed that Tamil Nadu has overcome obstacles to achieve inclusive development, contrasting it with BJP-ruled states where incidents of violence against minorities occur, and citing the prevention of communal tensions in the recent Thiruparankundram case as evidence of the state's vigilance.
