The news that former Congress leader Rahul Gandhi has spoken to AIADMK co-coordinator Palanisamy has caused a stir in political circles.
Panneerselvam has put a temporary end to the single leadership issue in the AIADMK through the courts. Palanisamy sees his failure to pass the single-leader resolution in the General Assembly as his own failure. The Palanisamy faction has doubts whether the BJP is helping Panneerselvam.
In the presidential election, the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) has announced Dravida Pathimurmu, a member of the tribal class. Opposition parties have fielded former MP Yaswant Sinha as their candidate. Netizens have been questioning whether the DMK, which speaks for social justice, will support the tribal candidate or the upper class candidate. Thus the DMK is suffering, not knowing what to decide.
It is said that the Congress is planning to go to the DMK side if the BJP supports the candidate DMK. As a result, former Congress leader Rahul Gandhi is reported to have spoken to AIADMK co-coordinator Palanisamy. No official information has been released on either side.
In the last assembly elections for the AIADMK, Rahul is said to have spoken with the help of an electoral strategist. It is said that Rahul sought the support of the opposition presidential candidate and asked him not to trust the BJP. If the BJP decides to support the candidate of the Palanisamy Opposition instead of the candidate, the political alliance will change.
Knowing this through intelligence, the BJP leadership is shocked. Following that, the BJP executives met Palanisamy and Panneer Selvam yesterday and asked them to support him in the presidential election. What Palanisamy is going to decide is currently the expectation of the Tamil Nadu political establishment.
