The political landscape in Tamil Nadu is all set to change, with the AIADMK exiting the NDA alliance, led by the BJP.
Previously, when the AIADMK was in alliance with the BJP in 1998 and 2004, the relationship lasted just about a year. But this time the parties were together for nearly five years, since 2019. The party walked out of the alliance this time, accusing the BJP State leadership, of deliberately, with mala fide intention, defaming its icons, including former Chief Ministers CN Annadurai and Jayalalithaa.
It added that the TN BJP leadership has been speaking ill of the party leadership and belittling its policies. The AIADMK did take it up with the national BJP leaders, but since it did not get a desired response, it decided to snap ties.
