The DMK is likely to increase its district units from 79 to over 100 and appoint new district secretaries as part of an organisational revamp. A committee set up by party president M.K. Stalin has submitted an interim report recommending the changes, which would require amendments to the party constitution. The party's executive committee is scheduled to meet on August 22 to discuss the recommendations. Sources told The Hindu that the panel has suggested accommodating young faces and women as district secretaries to infuse new blood and ensure wider representation. The committee includes former ministers Thangam Thennarasu and Geetha Jeevan, among others.
