டாக்டர் கலைஞர் மு.கருணாநிதி!

From Independence To Emergency, Nehru To Modi, Mandal To Hindutva, He Saw It All. Till the end, wrote his own script.

From being groomed by the iconic social reformer, Periyar E.V. Ramasamy in Dravidar Kazhagam to taking over Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam from "Anna" C.N. Annadurai, Karunanidhi had marched along success all the way. 

The DMK by then had already made significant reforms and even at that time allowed for monotheism. With Karunanidhi at the helm, the DMK entered a new phase: the party that shaped him would, in turn, be shaped by him. The rest is history.

Someone who dedicated all of him to his people and Tamil till his last breath. Tamil literature has had a massive contribution thanks to him and the epic writings he has left behind will make him immortal. Never has there been a confident and sensible Orator who has truly meant to change lives of people like he has. A great Administrator and a progressive thinker who always stood for oppressed people. The very reason of Tamilnadu's industry & IT boom. The legend who fought all his life.

He may have left us, but not without making a defining impact. His legacy will stay on forever.

RIP.
