													Tamil Nadu CM M K Stalin with Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal in Chennai's Anna Centenary Library on Monday. (PTI)  The Tamil Nadu Chief Minister and DMK president, M K Stalin, has always been credited with forming close, personal bonds with his counterparts and other leaders from across the political spectrum. He has been known for publicly displaying warmth and friendliness towards them.

During his recent visit to Kerala, Stalin posted a tweet, greeting his counterpart, CM Pinarayi Vijayan, as “my Dear Comrade”, which illustrates his political demeanour that always appears to be more “friendly” than “formal”.

Whether it is his warm gesture towards senior Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, whom he has frequently called “my brother”, or the red carpet rolled out for Delhi CM and AAP supremo Arvind Kejriwal during his Monday visit to Chennai by letting him launch the Tamil Nadu government’s schools of excellence and model schools scheme, Stalin has stood out in showing remarkable amiability and goodwill to other leaders.

While he used the term “my dear” for Marxist veteran Vijayan known for his tough demeanour, Stalin has always been effusively endearing to Rahul Gandhi. Addressing a large public rally in March 2021, the DMK chief, while making a public appeal to Rahul to take up the Congress’s leadership, said, “Sometimes when we speak on the phone, I address him (Rahul) as “Sir.” Then he would correct and demand that I call him brother. My brother Rahul…”

A DMK leader from Stalin’s inner circle joked about his penchant for treating other CMs and leaders like distant blood relatives. “Just see what kind of warmth is shown towards Kejriwal. He enjoys acting the gracious host in that way. Despite being the CM of a much smaller state than Tamil Nadu, Kejriwal is being treated royally. Whether it is Vijayan or Narendra Modi, Stalin enjoys bringing them home, offering them food and introducing his family members to them,” the leader said.
