NDA Will Form Govt in TN in 2026, Oust DMK: Shah
Hindustan Times Delhi
|June 09, 2025
The National Democratic Alliance (NDA) would form government in Tamil Nadu, Union home minister Amit Shah said on Sunday as he launched a scathing attack on the MK Stalin-led DMK government for "rising corruption, crimes against women and drug mafia" over the last four years.
CHENNAI: He also reiterated his demand to the state government for teaching medical and engineering courses in Tamil.
"I live in Delhi, but my ears are always on Tamil Nadu," Shah said. "The chief minister here says that Amit Shah cannot defeat the DMK. He is right. It won't be me. But, the people of Tamil Nadu will defeat the DMK," Shah said at a rally in Madurai.
"MK Stalin says that Amit Shah cannot defeat DMK. He is right. It's not me, but the people of Tamil Nadu will defeat you."
Both Tamil Nadu and West Bengal are set to go to polls next year. On April 11, Shah announced that the All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (AIADMK) and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) will fight the 2026 assembly elections in Tamil Nadu together under the leadership of former chief minister Edappadi Palaniswami.
During his visit to Madurai on Sunday, Shah reiterated his demand to the ruling DMK to teach medical and engineering courses in Tamil.
