NDTV
DMK spokesperson Dr SAS Hafeezullah told NDTV "BJP's ideology is enough to keep (voters) away in Tamil Nadu".
Tamil Nadu's ruling Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam on Monday rubbished talk of a "silent alliance" with rivals - the AIADMK - to keep the Bharatiya Janata Party out of the state. DMK spokesperson Dr SAS Hafeezullah told NDTV "BJP's ideology is enough to keep (voters) away in Tamil Nadu".
Dr Hafeezullah was responding to Union Minister Anurag Thakur's claim this morning the DMK and AIADMK were working together against the BJP, which secured less than 3.7 per cent of the votes in the state in the 2019 Lok Sabha election and less than three per cent in the 2021 Assembly poll.
"BJP's ideology is enough to keep (voters) away in Tamil Nadu... there is no need for any 'tactical alliance' with the AIADMK," she said dismissing claims the BJP is the "major opposition party".
