"Instead of haunting us repeatedly on our alliance with BJP, the media should throw the question at Stalin, Party President of DMK on why they joined hands with BJP in 1991?" slammed CM Edapadi Palanisamy in Coimbatore airport on Saturday.
As a majority of the reporters questioned on why they had signed pact with BJP, even after knowing the hatredness of Tamil Nadu people on BJP, the CM said "The truth is central government has facilitated multiple welfare schemes to TN. The Prime Minister has visited TN several times during his tenure. Undoubtedly, the Centre is governing the right way".
He also reitrated to the journalists that they should be questioning Stalin on why his father, Karunanidhi signed pact with BJP in 1991? Din't they then know that BJP was anti-people?
He also questioned that if BJP is anti-people, then who is Congress party? However, DMK is completely OK to join hands with Congress party which was instrumental in killing lakhs of Tamils in Srilanka.
