CHENNAI: Tamil Nadu BJP president K Annamalai on Sunday said the AIADMK was still part of their alliance and he had never said otherwise.
On his meeting with Union home minister and senior BJP leader Amit Shah, Annamalai said it would not be appropriate to divulge details.
Speaking on the sidelines of an educational event in Chennai, Annamalai said the AIADMK was still part of the BJP-led alliance.
“I never said in public that the AIADMK was not part of our alliance. They are still part of our alliance, but it doesn’t mean that the alliance for the 2024 Lok Sabha elections is finalised. We have nine more months to go,” said Annamalai.
“An alliance is like water and nothing is carved on stone. It can change any time,” said Annamalai.
As for his meeting with Shah and the subjects of discussion, Annamalai refused to divulge the details.
“I had a two-hour meeting with Amit Shah ji, but it will not be appropriate to reveal to the media the details of the meeting,” Annamalai said.
Asked about the difference of opinion between BJP state leaders on the issue of alliance, Annamalai categorically dismissed suggestions of differences.
“There are no differences amongst our party leaders. Everyone wants the party to grow in the state. There were discussions and only when such discussions are held something good will churn out,” Annamalai said.
