Chennai: DMK's Deputy General Secretary Subbulakshmi Jagadeesan resigned from the primary members of the party on Tuesday. She also officially submitted a letter along the same lines and expressed her wish to retire from politics. 

In the official resignation letter, Subbulakshmi said, "I did not contest in the elections after my term as a parliamentary member came to an end in 2009. I also communicated my wish to continue with the party work to the then DMK patriarch Kalaignar Karunanidhi."

"After his demise, I did all the party works with the motive to help with the appointment of MK Stalin as the Chief Minister. In 2021, DMK received a thumbing victory. Stalin became the CM and he is doing all the works in a way that receives appreciation from across the country," she said.
