Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M.K. Stalin, in an interview, sees the upcoming elections as a contest between 'Tamil Nadu and Delhi.' He emphasizes the importance of the DMK's Dravidian Model 2.0, which he believes has reshaped the state's socioeconomic fabric. Stalin, aware of the challenges, frames the election as a battle to retain power and counter the BJP. He highlights welfare schemes benefiting every family in Tamil Nadu, and calls the election a historically significant victory for the DMK. He considers the Kalaignar Magalir Urimai Thogai scheme and the morning breakfast scheme for schoolchildren as significant contributions. Stalin states that Delhi is trying to destroy India's diversity with slogans like 'One Nation, One Religion,' and that the BJP is trying to enter the state using a 'slave' like the AIADMK. He embraces all, regardless of political stance, and says that the politics of embrace, harmony and brotherhood is the unique character of the Tamil people. He adds that the opposition is only in the opposition coalition, and that the DMK is a symbol of how strong ideologies endure.
