Coimbatore: In a spirited assembly of DMK activists at Singanallur yesterday, rallying behind Coimbatore Parliamentary constituency DMK candidate Ganapathy Rajkumar, the party showcased its unity and resolve. The event, led by DMK urban district secretary Na. Karthik, was marked by a rousing speech from Tamil Nadu Minister for Industries, TRB Raja.

Raja stressed that Tamil Nadu stands as a unique state in India, a fact not fully grasped by those in the North. He declared the victory in the upcoming election as certain but cautioned against complacency, urging every day as an opportunity to bring voters under the DMK fold. The Minister highlighted the reasons to support DMK and Chief Minister MK Stalin, emphasizing the importance of conveying these reasons to the people.
