So, we also tried to make Thirumavalavan the CM,” Dhinakaran told reporters at Madurantakam ahead of his campaign. Dhinakaran said neither DMK nor BJP had any role in these developments. He said TVK’s claims that DMK and AIADMK had tried to form the govt as “completely false.”
Instead, AIADMK front had planned to seek Vijay’s support to make AIADMK general secretary Edappadi K Palaniswami as the CM. “We were planning to seek Vijay’s support if he had failed to form the govt. We wanted to make EPS the CM. But some did not cooperate.
CHENNAI: AMMK general secretary T T V Dhinakaran on Wednesday rejected chief minister C Joseph Vijay’s charges that DMK and AIADMK had attempted to jointly form a govt after the assembly elections in Tamil Nadu.
Claiming that around 65% of the electorate had voted against Vijay, Dhinakaran said voters would teach him a lesson in the Oct 6 bypolls.
“He is continuing his acting even now,” he said. Referring to Vijay’s speech in Dharapuram constituency, Dhinakaran accused the TVK leader of making baseless statements out of fear of losing the elections. He alleged that Vijay had made his party’s Dharapuram candidate, P Sathyabama, cry on the campaign stage. He might also make his party candidate for Madurantakam to cry ahead of the polls.
