AIADMK is strong in Tamil Nadu, said the Chief of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), Nainar Nagenthiran, on Thursday, adding that there is no need for his party to destroy it as alleged by its political adversaries. The statement came on Thursday, September 11, as the TN BJP chief refuted the allegation of party leadership attempting to weaken and destroy the AIADMK.
He then said those jealous of the AIADMK’s popularity were coming up with such "baseless charges".
“The AIADMK is strong (in the state). There’s no need for the BJP to break that party. We have accepted its general secretary Edappadi K Palaniswami, to lead the alliance. So, what he says (about his party) matters to us,” Nagenthiran cited. Edappadi K. Palaniswami is the Chief of AIADMK in Tamil Nadu.
Declining to accept that the principal opposition party was facing a crisis, he said wherever Palaniswami addressed rallies, people swarmed in large numbers to hear him.
“You can witness a sea of humanity gathering at his meetings across the state, indicating the massive support from people,” Nagenthiran added.
On AIADMK senior leader K A Sengottaiyan meeting BJP senior leader and Union Home Minister Amit Shah in the national capital, recently, Nagenthiran stated, “I don’t have the details about Sengottaiyan’s claims of meeting the Home Minister.”
He then reiterated his earlier stance that he was willing to negotiate with former Chief Minister O Panneerselvam and AMMK leader T T V Dhinakaran and bring them back to the NDA alliance.
