MK STALIN’S WAR CRY: Tamil Nadu CM’s Video Ignites Language and Power Fight

Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M K Stalin dropped a fiery video on his X handle Friday morning, hours before his 72nd birthday on March 1, 2025, rallying Tamils with a bold vow: “One goal—Fight for Tamil Nadu, Win for Tamil Nadu!” Clocking in just before 10:30 AM IST, the clip sees Stalin zeroing in on two explosive issues—language rights and constituency delimitation—stoking the state’s simmering standoff with the Centre.

“Tamil Nadu faces twin battles: our language, our soul, and delimitation, our right,” Stalin declared, his voice steady but charged. He’s framing it as a survival fight—protecting Tamil from what he calls Hindi imposition and resisting a redraw of parliamentary seats that could shrink the state’s clout in Delhi.

The timing’s razor-sharp. With delimitation talks heating up—southern states fear losing Lok Sabha seats to the north—Stalin’s tapping Tamil pride to galvanize his DMK base. The language barb, a jab at the BJP’s three-language push, lands amid fresh friction after Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan tied funds to policy compliance. Stalin’s not backing down, urging every Tamil to join the fray.
