Inaugurates Vaiko's 'Equality March', warns against "more intoxicating divisive religious politics
CAUTIONING that drug abuse and its indirect glorification in cinema and popular culture could devastate the future of young people, Chief Minister M K Stalin on Friday said the fight against narcotics should become a collective social responsibility.
Flagging off the 'Equality March' of MDMK founder Vaiko in Tiruchy, a city he described as a historic crucible of the Dravidian movement, Stalin also warned against the "more dangerous intoxication of divisive religious politics."
"Glorifying intoxication in creative works can destroy an entire generation. Highlighting the ill-effects of drugs is necessary," Stalin said and exhorted artistes and filmmakers to act with social responsibility. He also urged the centre to prevent entry of drugs through ports.
