DMK Mupperum Vizha celebrations

Overview

The Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK) annual Mupperum Vizha celebrations in Chennai were initially postponed due to the illness of party president MK Stalin, who was suffering from a viral fever.

Following the postponement, the event proceeded at Anna Arivalayam. During the ceremony, which honors the birthdays of leaders Anna and Periyar, MK Stalin delivered a speech criticizing the opposition. He accused them of maintaining a popular image without a majority and alleged that the state leadership is prioritizing personal image and ‘cinematic-style performances’ over governance. Stalin also claimed that the administration is attempting to undermine the ‘Dravidian model’ by renaming or stopping welfare schemes, noting that the state is facing high inflation.
