Udhayanidhi Stalin becomes DMK youth wing secretary

DMK chief MK Stalin’s son Udhayanidhi Stalin was appointed as DMK youth wing secretary on Thursday.

Youth wing secretary post is one of the powerful positions in DMK. MK Stalin has been the secretary of the youth wing ever since it was founded. Former Minister Vellakovil Swaminathan was appointed as the youth wing secretary when Stalin became the president of the party. Udhayanidhi succeeded Vellakovil Swaminathan as the youth wing secretary, after Swaminathan resigned his post in June due to personal reasons.

Udhayanidhi’s recent involvement in the party activities and campaigns has already hinted his political entry. According to the DMK officials, Udhayanidhi Stalin is set to visit MK Stalin to get his blessings and pay homage to Anna, Karunanidhi and Periyar memorials as a token of respect.
