On Friday, Stalin met with veteran Congress leader Sonia Gandhi and Leader of the Opposition Rahul Gandhi at their residence, accompanied by senior DMK leaders. Posting on his X handle after the meeting, Stalin wrote:
“There is a special warmth in every meeting with Madam Sonia Gandhi and dear brother Rahul Gandhi at their Delhi residence. It never feels like a visit; it truly feels like being with family.”
He also visited Dr A. Parameswaran, the ENT surgeon from Tamil Nadu who survived the recent Pahalgam terror attack, and is currently being treated at AIIMS in New Delhi.
“Just met Dr A. Parameswaran at AIIMS Delhi… Calm, composed and courageous beyond words. I personally wished him strength and a swift recovery,” the CM wrote on X.
Stalin further inspected the ongoing construction of a new guest house within the Tamil Nadu House complex, a project he had virtually inaugurated on 26 July 2024. The works are being undertaken at a cost of Rs 257 crore.
Earlier in the day, upon his arrival from Chennai, the Chief Minister was welcomed at the airport by DMK MPs including T. R. Baalu and A. K. S. Vijayan, the Tamil Nadu government’s special representative in the national capital, along with other party leaders.
