Chennai sources reported that Tamilnadu Chief Minister Edappadi K Palanisamy said that the AIADMK does not have any alliance with the BJP nor it supports the government at the Centre. Meanwhile this came after Telugu Desam Party MP Jayadev Galla accused the AIADMK of playing to the tunes of the BJP. He also said he also said that the government was running away from the debate and that the speaker was supporting them. "This is like match fixing".
Further the proceedings in Parliament were washed out for the 13th consecutive day as members of AIADMK and TRS continued with their noisy protests, with the Lok Sabha unable to take up the notices of no-confidence motion against the government for the fourth day.
Previously Senior AIADMK leader and Lok Sabha member Anwar Raja had said
that his party would not have any electoral alliance with the BJP in the
upcoming polls. Moreover Raja quoted “We will not have any poll alliance with the BJP. Our party will continue to
adopt the stand taken by our late leader J Jayalalitha on the matter".
