Oraniyil Tamil Nadu: DMK campaign to feel the pulse of voters
'Stalin receives up-to-date status reports every day detailing the performance of each union, district and functionaries both those excelling and those lagging. He uses these reports during his one-on-one meetings with constituency-wise functionaries,' said a source.
Under 'Oraniyil Tamil Nadu', the party has plans to reach approximately 2 crore households in 45 days. A team of party cadre along with a digital agent, a youth and a woman will visit every house within their respective polling booths across the state's 68,000 booths.
The party functionaries carry a questionnaire leaflet containing six 'Yes-or-No' questions.
They are read aloud to members of each household and the appropriate boxes are ticked based on the response. While the leaflet includes a question asking whether the respondent wished to join the 'Oraniyil Tamil Nadu' campaign, answering 'Yes' to this does not mean they would automatically be enrolled as a party member.

Home Minster G. Parameshwara to hold peace committee meeting in Mangaluru on Wednesday
With Dakshina Kannada district witnessing three communal murders between April and May this year, Home Minister G. Parameshwara will chair a peace committee meeting in Mangaluru on Wednesday to thrash out ways to bring harmony in society. The meeting to be held at the Netravathi Auditorium on the zilla panchayat premises from 12 p.m. would be attended by Assembly Speaker U.T. Khader, district in-charge Minister Dinesh Gundu Rao, elected representatives from the district, leaders of political parties, representatives of different organisations, educational institutions, religious leaders and others, said an official release. The meeting was earlier scheduled for June 13, a day after the Ahmedabad air crash, amid a host of other programmes. However, the meeting was cancelled, and the Home Minister restricted his itinerary to launching the Special Action Force for Dakshina Kannada, Udupi, and Shivamogga districts to combat communalism, as well as inaugurating residential quarters for police personnel. A rag-picker from Wayanad in Kerala, Ashraf, was beaten to death by a group of people on April 27 near Kudupu within the City Police Commissionerate limits. The incident occurred when the victim reportedly made some statements that angered the players at a local cricket event. Police have arrested a majority of the accused in this case. On May 1, the double murder accused and Hindutva activist Suhas Shetty was hacked to death by a group of persons at Bajpe within the Commissionerate limits. While the police nabbed a majority of the accused, the Union Home Ministry handed over the probe to the National Investigating Agency on June 7, stating that the case related to the targeted killing of an individual in public view to create terror in the minds of people by members of an alleged unlawful association. On May 27, Abdul Rahiman from Kolthamajalu in Bantwal taluk was hacked to death by a group of persons in Ira Kodi village when he, along with Kalander Shafi, was unloading sand from his pick-up vehicle. Rahiman was the secretary of the local Masjid committee. Bantwal Rural Police, under the Dakshina Kannada district police, have arrested the accused in the case, and the investigation is in progress.

Don't question achievements, work of Marathi people: BJP, MahaYuti govt snub Nishikant Dubey
The BJP and the MahaYuti government on Monday chose to distance themselves from BJP MP Nishikant Dubey's 'You people are surviving on our money. What kind of industries do you have?' jibe. Mumbai BJP president and Maharashtra Cultural Affairs Minister Ashish Shelar, stated in the Assembly on Monday, 'The MP from Jharkhand must definitely present his argument that is within the law, but should not question the achievements and work of Marathi people. Marathi people do not live on anyone's pie.' Shelar did not name Dubey citing the fact that he was not a member of the Maharashtra Assembly. Shelar further said, 'Maharashtra is a testimony to the prowess of Marathi people all over the world. Marathi people's contribution to the GDP is quite substantial.' He added, 'The government's role is to protect the interests of Marathi people and ensure that injustice is not done to them." Shelar went on to add that, 'If the MP from Jharkhand does not know what the contribution of Marathi people is to the country's GDP, we will send him information about it.' Shelar's bid to clarify the position of the BJP and the MahaYuti government came after Shiv Sena (UBT) chief Uddhav Thackeray slammed Dubey saying that, 'In Mumbai, non-Marathi speaking people are living with Marathi people with dignity. This has set the BJP's base on fire, there are scoundrels like Dubey, who are trying to vitiate the atmosphere.' Earlier, Dubey sparked controversy as in his fiery response to Uddhav Thackeray and Maharashtra Navnirman Sena founder Raj Thackeray, he said, 'You people are surviving on our money. What kind of industries do you have? If you are courageous enough and beat those who speak Hindi, then you should beat all those who speak Urdu, Tamil, and Telugu. If you are such a big 'boss', come out of Maharashtra, come to Bihar, Uttar Pradesh, Tamil Nadu. Tumko patak, patak ke marenge.' Dubey criticised the Thackeray brothers for targeting Hindi-speaking people in Mumbai. Reacting to the ongoing row over Marathi language enforcement, Dubey accused the Thackeray cousins of "cheap politics" ahead of the BrihanMumbai Municipal Corporation elections and questioned their selective outrage
