CHENNAI: Assuring party cadres and functionaries not to worry about alliance dynamics and seat-sharing arrangements, MK Stalin, president of the DMK, on Tuesday said he would personally handle all alliance-related matters.

Chairing a meeting of district secretaries at Anna Arivalayam, the party headquarters here, the Chief Minister said unity among party functionaries and cadres was crucial.

"Functionaries and cadres should work together. If there is any lack of coordination, I will take strict action. The party is bigger than any individual," he said.

In a veiled reference to recent remarks from sections of the Congress, Stalin said that even allies could sometimes create confusion. "Some people, even within our alliance, may try to create confusion.

However, we should not fall into such traps," he said, urging party members to remain focused on organisational work.

Meanwhile, resolutions passed at the meeting said the DMK would hold a State-level conference at Tiruchy on March 8.
