Stalin pays tribute to DMK veteran leader K Anbazhagan

DMK President MK Stalin on Saturday paid rich tributes to the late veteran party leader K Anbazhagan, describing him as a “source of comfort and guidance”.

Anbazhagan, who served as a 9-time MLA and was the party’s general secretary for 43 years, was a close associate of DMK patriarch M Karunanidhi.

He passed away on March 7, 2020. In a statement on Saturday, Stalin said, “Professor K Anbazhagan, the great man, a warrior of principles. Whenever the party faced a crisis, the professor stood shoulder to shoulder with Kalaignar (M Karunanidhi). After the passing of Kalaignar, he was a source of comfort, embrace and guidance for me.”

“On the Memorial Day of our professor K Anbazhagan, who stood as the definition of friendship and commitment to principles, let us take an oath to establish the Dravidian Model Government again!” he said.
