BJP AIAMDK SEAT SHARING ELECTIONS
The ruling AIADMK has revealed that it would be allocating 20 Assembly constituencies to the BJP for the elections along the Kanyakumari Parliamentary Constituency for the April 6 election. The agreement was signed between Chief Minister Edpaddi K Palaniswami, Deputy Chief Minister O Panneerselvam, BJP national general secretary in-charge of party affairs in Tamil Nadu CT Ravi and BJP State president L Murugan. Earlier in the day, the DMK had signed a deal with the CPI, the fourth ally which engaged in a seat-sharing agreement.
Even on Friday, the identification of constituencies was underway as well as fixing the number of seats. Nonetheless, PMK leaders had been holding talks on identification of the seats with the AIAMDK. It is believed that the agreement had been signed just before the end of Sapthami Tithi at midnight as the days following it are regarded as inauspicious. It is no doubt that a larger number of seats had been expected by BJP
