O. Panneerselvam says he will remain in NDA till BJP breaks ties

Expelled AIADMK coordinator O. Panneerselvam on Thursday said he will remain in the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) until the BJP breaks its ties with him. However, he was not invited to attend the NDA meeting held in New Delhi on Tuesday in which Prime Minister Narendra Modi and other alliance leaders participated.

Speaking to media persons at Madurai airport, he said though there was no invitation to participate in the Delhi meeting, he remained with the NDA as a member. “Until they break the relationship, I will be a part of it,” he said. The BJP had invited the AIADMK led by Edappadi K Palaniswami for the NDA meet.

The lawlessness in Manipur should be brought under control immediately by both the Union and State governments. “Atrocities against women was disturbing. The governments should find a solution for permanent peace in the riot-torn State,” he said.
