Stalin had earlier hit out indirectly at Vijay\u2019s state-wide campaign from Tiruchirappalli, which disrupted traffic in several parts of the city.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Stalin Targets BJP, AIADMK<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p id=\"5\" class=\"story_para_5\">Targeting the BJP, Stalin said the \u201csaffron ideology&#8221; was the biggest threat facing the state. \u201cThe DMK has been fighting this for over 2,000 years, and today, we continue our resistance against the BJP\u2019s oppressive central government,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p id=\"6\" class=\"story_para_6\">He further said that the Narendra Modi government has not been able to make inroads in Tamil Nadu despite forming the Central government three consecutive times, and slammed the party for imposing Hindi in the state.<\/p>\n<p id=\"7\" class=\"story_para_7\">\u201cDo you see how Delhi tries to dominate us in so many ways? They are imposing the Hindi language on us. They refuse to exempt us from the NEET exam, which sacrifices the futures of our students. They even deny us the rightful education funds for our children,&#8221; he said, while also criticising the Bihar SIR exercise.<\/p>\n<p id=\"8\" class=\"story_para_8\">Targeting AIADMK leader Edappadi K Palaniswami, Stalin said, \u201cAIADMK once claimed to stand for self-respect, but today it has fallen into subservience, seeking refuge under Amit Shah. While many parties that promised change and transformation have vanished, the DMK has remained strong.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p id=\"9\" class=\"story_para_9\">\u201cEven now, Palaniswami stoops low in his speeches. What else can we expect from someone who surrendered AIADMK to the BJP just to save himself from raids?&#8221; he added. \u201cTamil Nadu is a no-entry zone for the BJP. No one can defeat the DMK in this state, and Karur is not just a district; it is DMK\u2019s own land.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p id=\"10\" class=\"story_para_10\">The ruling DMK is locked in a high-pitch battle with the BJP and AIADMK ahead of the 2026 Tamil Nadu Assembly elections. The BJP and AIADMK formed an alliance earlier this year.<\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atawrap\">\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atadetailwrp\">\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd ataname\"><span class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atthumb\"><\/p>\n<figure class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Aveek Banerjee\" title=\"Aveek Banerjee\" src=\"https:\/\/images.news18.com\/ibnlive\/uploads\/2024\/11\/aveek-banerjee-2024-11-940460633d45861efbabed5737a433a0.jpeg?impolicy=website&amp;width=60&amp;height=60\" class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd\"\/><\/figure>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd attitle\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/byline\/aveek-banerjee-28106.html\" class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atamail\">Aveek Banerjee<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Aveek Banerjee is a Senior Sub Editor at News18.
