Mr. Stalin, who had advised party candidates to visit their constituencies to meet and thank voters, set an example by visiting Kolathur, where he lost to Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK) candidate V.S. Babu, a former DMK leader and district secretary.`There was spontaneous response from the public, with large crowds gathering and slowing the movement of Mr. Stalin’s vehicle to a crawl. Many party workers turned emotional and were seen shedding tears, while a visibly moved Mr. Stalin, standing on an open-top vehicle, urged them not to weep. Former Hindu Religious and Charitable Endowments Minister P.K. Sekarbabu, who accompanied Mr. Stalin, was also seen in tears throughout the visit. Published - May 05, 2026 11:26 pm IST
