I will pursue progressive and development-oriented politics, says Durai Vaiko
Durai Vaiko, son of MDMK general secretary Vaiko, who has been appointed as the headquarters secretary of the party, said he would steer clear of right-wing politics and pursue progressive and development-oriented politics.
“I do not want to enter politics, but destiny has thrust it on me. It is going to be a difficult journey. I am indebted to the party leaders and cadres who have reposed faith in me and will live up to their expectations,” Mr. Durai Vaiko told The Hindu.
He was appointed on Wednesday after the party’s high-level committee, district secretaries, political advisory committee and political research centre voted overwhelmingly in favour of his entry into the party. Of the 106 votes, he polled 104.
