THE DMK government led by Chief Minister MK Stalin is making arrangements to celebrate the centenary year of the elected legislature in Tamil Nadu in a grand manner. The history of the elected legislature in Tamil Nadu began with a bang from the Justice Party rule during the British regime since it enacted many landmark legislations as well as social reform measures, and since then, the legislative body here has undergone many changes.
The DMK takes pride in celebrating its roots, and now, the centenary of the Madras Legislative Council is yet another occasion for that since the history of this legislative body began with the rule of the Justice Party that later blossomed into the Dravidian movement.
Asked about the need to celebrate the centenary of the Madras Legislative Council now since the diamond jubilee of the State Assembly from the year of Independence was celebrated in 2012, DMK spokesperson J Constantine Ravindran told TNIe that when the Madras Legislative Council was set up in 1921, for the first time, legislative powers were given to the provincial legislative body to enact laws for “peace and good government” in the Province. So, in other words, the people’s government was established in 1921, starting with the Justice Party’s rule.
