Chennai (Tamil Nadu) [India], April 13 (ANI): AIADMK national spokesperson Kovai Sathyan on Sunday praised the newly elected BJP President Nainar Nagendran whom he said had a rich experience in the political area and understood the nuances of the political climate and culture in Tamil Nadu.
"Nainar Nagendran has a lot of experience in the political arena. He understands the nuances of the political climate and culture. We wish him good luck..." Sathyan said.
He also said that the people of Tamil Nadu had clearly shown the door to the DMK, which was running a dynasty in the name of democracy.
"People of Tamil Nadu have clearly decided that DMK, which runs a dynasty in the name of democracy, has to be shown the door. The failure of law and order and people-centric benefits and programmes, rampant corruption...DMK is shaken because of the BJP-AIADMK alliance...this is the signal that the end of DMK has begun..." the AIADMK leader said.
Meanwhile, DMK leader TKS Elangovan has expressed surprise over Nagendran's appointment and questioned why the party's own rules weren't followed.
While speaking to ANI, he said, "I don't know what happened; they had issued a circular that person should be a member of the party for at least ten years. Then, suddenly, Nainar Nagendran was chosen to lead the party. Maybe he's an MLA. He had won elections, so maybe that's the reason they thought that he has the capacity to lead the party..."
Nagendran's appointment as State President was backed unanimously by senior BJP leaders, including outgoing president K Annamalai. The BJP, alongside its allies in the National Democratic Alliance (NDA), has intensified its political activities in Tamil Nadu ahead of the 2026 polls.
Following Nagendran's appointment as Tamil Nadu BJP President, party leaders and alliance members have expressed strong confidence about the 2026 Assembly elections, asserting that the BJP-AIADMK alliance is gaining ground across the state. (ANI)
