Will teach Narendra Modi government a lesson: Stalin

| @indiablooms | Aug 28, 2018, at 03:42 pm

Chennai, Aug 28 (IBNS): After taking over as the new president of Dravida Munnetra Kazghagam (DMK), MK Stalin on Tuesday said his party will 'teach a lesson' to Prime Minister Narendra Modi-led Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) government at the Centre.

"We will teach a lesson to the Narendra Modi government," Stalin was quoted as saying by NDTV to his party workers after he took over as the new president of the DMK.

He also urged his party men to throw out the ruling AIADMK government from the state.

Stalin (65), the son of former Tamil Nadu Chief Minister late Muthuvel Karunanidhi, succeeded his father.

The DMK president's post had fallen vacant after party patriarch Karunanidhi's demise on Aug 7, 2018.

Stalin became the working president of the party in 2017.

Following Karunanidhi's death, a succession war within the party took place with Alagiri, the other son of the late DMK president, claiming several party loyalists are with him.

Alagiri was expelled from the DMK in 2014 for "anti-party activities".
