AIADMK blazoned that there’s no alliance with the BJP as of now and a decision in this regard will be taken during the choices. D Jayakumar, a elderly leader of the All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam( AIADMK), on Monday blazoned that there’s no alliance with the BJP as of now and a decision in this regard will be taken during the choices. “ The BJP isn’t in alliance with AIADMK. We’ll decide about the alliance during the choices only, ” said Jayakumar. Jayakumar added that this is the party’s stage and not his particular opinion, and although the BJP wanted an alliance with the AIADMK but K Annamalai( Tamil Nadu BJP chairman) doesn’t wish the same. “ We ca n’t accept nonstop review on our leaders. Annamalai formerly criticised our leader Jayalalithaa.
He should have stopped this. He’s criticising Anna, Periyar and the general clerk. No skeleton would accept this. hereafter we’ve to work on the field. So without any option, we blazoned this. There wo n’t be any impact on us with this decision. We’re confident of our palm, ” news agency ANI quoted Jayakumar as saying. AIADMK- BJP bickering The bickering between abettors AIADMK and BJP in Tamil Nadu over late Dravidian stalwart CN Annadurai peaked on Monday as the former trained its ordnance against Annamalai, saying he was only keen to “ promote ” himself and was thus targeting late Dravidian stalwarts Annadurai, fondly addressed as Anna( elder family), EV Ramasamy Periyar and late AIADMK stagers MG Ramachandran( MGR) and J Jayalalithaa.
Responding, the BJP said the Dravidian party “ has a problem ”, with its growth as well as the growing elevation of a youthful leader like Annamalai. The development came days after AIADMK general clerk Edappadi K Palaniswami met Union home minister Amit Shah in New Delhi. Row over Annamalai’s reflections While Annamalai had made critical reflections about AIADMK leaders including the late J Jayalalithaa in the history, the party had sought that the former be restrained.
Why should we carry you? The BJP ca n’t set bottom then. Your votebank is known. You’re known because of us, ” Jayakumar told journalists while lashing out at the BJP and its state unit chairman. Asked if this was his particular opinion, Jayakumar asked, “ Have I ever spoken to you in that capacity? I only talk what the party decides. ” Annadurai The author of DMK A altitudinous leader, Annadurai innovated the DMK in 1949 and in 1967 heralded Tamil Nadu’s firstnon-Congress governmentpost-independence and is admired across party lines.
MGR, who innovated the AIADMK in 1972, named it the All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam, as he’d great reverence for Annadurai. Jayakumar said Anna was a reputed scholar who steered in TN’s growth and that “ we venerate him. “ Our party has his( Annadurai) name. To promote himself, he belittles Periyar. He did n’t budge indeed after commination. It’s against coalition dharma; no AIADMK worker will accept this. Annamalai is unfit to be a leader and he’s keen only about promoting him. What right have you got to talk about Periyar, EPS( Palaniswami), Amma( Jayalalithaa) and MGR.
AIADMK workers will noway accept this, ” Jayakumar added. “ He’s arrogant. Alliance( between the two) isn’t there, can be decided only during election. Suddenly he speaks about our leaders – how can we accept review ofleaders.However, also it means similar effects are passing with their knowledge, ” he said, If he’s not budging indeed after( AIADMK) taking up with( BJP) high command. The AIADMK had nothing to lose over the alliance- related development. “ They’re the disasters, ” he said about the BJP. He constantly claimed the BJP and Annamalai will fare poorly electorally without the AIADMK.
He advised that if Annamalai does n’t cease from targeting similar altitudinous leaders, he’ll be given a befitting reply. Responding to the matter, Amar Prasad Reddy, close assistant of Annamalai, said the AIADMK was unfit to stand the growing fashionability of the BJP and its state chief, and thus made such an advertisement.
Annamalai also spoke largely of Annadurai, he added. What happed between AIADMK and BJP? AIADMK and BJP have been sparring over the last many days over Annamalai’s review of Annadurai. On September 11, leading a demonstration against Hindu Religious and Charitable bents Minister PK Sekar ‘ Sanatana Dharma ’ eradication conference then, Annamalai had made a comment on Annadurai.
The BJP leader said Anna had in the 1950s made a critical comment in Madurai against the Hindu faith at an event, and that it was staunchly opposed by freedom fighter Pasumpon Muthuramalinga Thevar. elderly AIADMK leader and former minister CV Shanmugam had earlier said there’s no base or evidence for what Annamalai has claimed and that the BJP leader has no locus standi to note on Anna. Former ministers and AIADMK leaders Jayakumar and Sellur K Raju also had explosively opposed Annamalai’s comment.
Speaking to journalists in Coimbatore on Sunday, Annamalai asked if what he’d said about Anna was wrong. He asserted that he’s in politics to cover Sanatana Dharma and Tamil culture. He claimed that he didn’t speak ill of Anna and had only mentioned an event from the runners of history and the manner in which Muthuramalinga Thevar had defended SanatanaDharma.To substantiate his claim, the BJP leader said, he’d clones of news reports that appeared in the month of June in 1956 in a top public English menial. Shanmugam had said as Annamalai had criticised the Dravidian icon indeed while the AIADMK and BJP were in alliance, it led to a dubitation
