‘BJP has gained strength in state’
ABJP core committee member said, “The BJP has gained strength in the last few years, but the AIADMK leadership says our party does not have even booth level agents in certain constituencies. Amit Shah on Sunday told the party’s core committee in Villupuram to increase its public visibility, work at the grassroots level and get along harmoniously with the election partners.”
Meanwhile, a three-member team from the DMDK, including presidium chairman V Elangovan, propaganda secretary Alagapuram R Mohanraj and deputy secretary B Parthasarathy held talks with ministers P Thangamani and S P Velumani. The ministers had called on DMDK leader Vijayakanth at the latter’s residence on Saturday night. On Saturday, DMK treasurer, Premalatha, during her meeting with partymen in Kallakurichi said, “Even if we contest alone we would secure more than 10% voteshare. But Captain (Vijayakanth) is aiming for an alliance to fetch a victory.”
