Unlike the DMK, which has been continuously mute and giving up the rights of the state, the AIADMK has continuously been firm in ensuring the rights of the people of Tamil Nadu and shall never allow any measures that would lead to the desertification of the entire Cauvery Delta region of Tamil Nadu. "I request TN Chief Minister M K Stalin to take necessary legal measures and ensure that our rights over Cauvery are preserved," he said.
