TAMIL Nadu needs an alternative political discourse to restore its former glory, reboot its economy, and enhance the quality of life for its people, stated Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) state president K Annamalai. Speaking at the ThinkEdu Conclave 2025 on Tuesday, Annamalai expressed confidence in the BJP's growing influence, particularly at the grassroots level, and declared that the party is poised to assume power in the 2026 Tamil Nadu Assembly elections.
Annamalai argued that TN is currently off track, having lost its path two decades ago. While acknowledging that the BJP is a late entrant in the state and lacks the prominent cultural icons that the Dravidian parties boast of, he pointed out that even these icons have now become outdated.
