The AIADMK said on Monday that the BJP’s decision to go it alone in the urban local bodies elections would not adversely affect its prospects.
D. Jayakumar, AIADMK’s organisation secretary, said that in the past too, the AIADMK had contested in the Assembly elections independently and pointed out how it had emerged victorious in 2016. He denied that the controversy over the remarks of BJP floor leader Nainar Nagenthran had anything to do with the development as the national party’s leaders had expressed regret.
