EPS misleading AIADMK cadre on alliance: DMK
The New Indian Express
|July 13, 2025
REACTING to Union Home Minister Amit Shah's assertion that the saffron party will join the government if the AIADMK-BJP alliance wins in 2026, DMK organisational secretary R S Bharathi said, "That is the BJP's agenda. Palaniswami, despite already knowing this, is misleading his own party cadre out of fear that they themselves will not accept it." Countering Shah's claims, in an interview to TNIE, that the NDA would win by a landslide in TN in 2026, Bharathi said, "They definitely cannot win.
-
Since 1967, TN has been ruled only by Dravidian parties. The Tamil people will never accept a coalition government. EPS is falsely claiming that the AIADMK is leading the coalition. In reality, it is the BJP that is leading it." To support his point, Bharathi recalled the DMK-Congress alliance in 1980, which ended in a debacle.
