Udhayanidhi’s anointment — a representative of the third generation of the M Karunanidhi clan — comes at a time when the DMK is celebrating its 75th year.
R Kannan's new book explores the DMK's journey over 75 years, discussing its challenges, leadership changes, and evolving political landscape under MK Stalin.
Stalin also used the platinum jubilee celebrations of his party to target the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP)-led Union government raising a raft of issues, including alleged meagre allocation of central funds, autonomy and the Goods and Services Tax (GST).
