Reiterating that Opposition parties in the country are committed to removing the “dictatorial BJP” from power, DMK president and Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M.K. Stalin on Sunday said, “We will not bother even if there is a threat to the State government.”
He said the BJP, especially Prime Minister Narendra Modi, were irritated by the meeting organised by the Opposition parties in Patna and their meeting in Bengaluru scheduled for July 17 and 18. He accused Mr. Modi of “forgetting his position as the Prime Minister and blabbering”.
In an address at a marriage function in the family of Dravidian Movement historian K. Thirunavukkarasu in Chennai, Mr. Stalin said the objective of the meetings of the Opposition parties “is to evolve a strategy for who should not come to power in the 2024 Lok Sabha election rather than who should come to power.” He said the Opposition parties had come together to remove the dictatorial BJP from power.
