For the good of the society as a whole, the DMK would defeat communal ideas with the help of all concerned, vouched DMK President Kalaignar.
Participating in the Christmas function organized by Christian Goodwill Movement led by Inigo Irudayaraj in Chennai on Dec 20, Kalaignar appreciated the services of the movement for literary, humanitarian, secular and rationalist causes and Tamil society.
He said the common view of the representatives at the function was that the society as a whole should live as humanitarian society and if any damage occurred it meant that we had failed in the awakening we should have created.
In his speech earlier, M.K.Stalin listed the benefits offered by DMK rules to the Christian community and hoped to continue to offer them in future.
Kalaignar said right from the days of Thanthai Periyar and Arignar Anna the DMK had been committed to secular, anti-communal ideology striving for the poor and downtrodden, workers and the proletariat. The DMK’s real victory remained in defeating communal views with the help of all those who had attended the function.
He said nobody should think that the DMK was just a political movement, it had ingredients of social and economic agenda too. Ignoring socio-economic policies, it was not just a humanitarian party. Only we could form a good rule guiding and protecting this society, even if it were not our government it should be a honest and just regime whoever led it.
The services rendered by us to this society, in particular to Christian community should be carried to Christian youth, students and elders by our campaign, Kalaignar said.
Earlier, Kalaignar distributed Rs. One lakh each to five fishermen Langet, Prasad, Emerson, Wilson and Agustus, who were sentenced to death and after great efforts commuted and released from Sri Lanka.
DMK Treasurer Thalapathi M.K.Stalin, Peter Alphonse, Inigo Irudhayaraj , Bishop Esra Sargunam, former Bishop Dr M.M.Chinnappa and functionaries of many other Christian churches participated.
