No cancellation of scheduled programmes
Talking to The Federal, Tamil Nadu Secretariat PRO Muthamil Selvan said that except for the visit to his constituency Kolathur, Stalin had not cancelled any of his scheduled programmes for the day.
This evening, Stalin's wife Durga Stalin is scheduled to launch the second part of her book titled Avarum Nanum ('He and I'). The book release, which was earlier scheduled for July 19, was postponed when Stalin’s half-brother MK Muthu died following age-related illness.
Muthamil Selvan confirmed that the book release will take place as scheduled. Renowned writer Sivasankari, DMK MP Tamizhachi Thangapandian, and Mallika Srinivasan, Chairman and Managing Director of TAFE, will take part in the programme.
According to Stalin’s planned schedule, he will inaugurate a hospital in Tiruppur on Tuesday (July 22) and also unveil a statue of his father and former Chief Minister M Karunanidhi. “After completing medical tests, Chief Minister Stalin will return home. So far, we have not been asked to cancel any of his programmes,” said Muthamil Selvan.
