He won all 13 elections he contested since 1957. A great leader is no more today.#RIPKalaignar #RipKarunanidhi pic.twitter.com/Unf3IBZqAo — SS Music (@SSMusicTweet) August 7, 2018 I have had the opportunity of interacting with Karunanidhi Ji on several occasions. His understanding of policy and emphasis on social welfare stood out. Firmly committed to democratic ideals, his strong opposition to the Emergency will always be remembered. pic.twitter.com/cbMiMPRy7l — Narendra Modi (@narendramodi) August 7, 2018 My thoughts are with the family and the countless supporters of Karunanidhi Ji in this hour of grief.
