Dear Mr Stalin,



               Please accept my deepest condolences on the passing of your father, Mr M Karunanidhi.



               Mr Karunanidhi was a giant in Indian politics who devoted his life to improving the lives of the people of Tamil Nadu, especially the poor and the marginalised.



               Our hearts and prayers go out to you and your family on this sad day.



Yours sincerely,



DR VIVIAN BALAKRISHNAN
