Chennai, Dec 28 (BPNS)
The Amma Makkal Munnetra Kazhagam (AMMK) General secretary, TTV Dhinakaran has ruled out the possibility of a merger with the opposition AIADMK.
Dhinakaran while addressing reporters said that the party will never make the mistake of merging with the AIADMK. He was speaking to media persons after holding discussions with district-level office bearers of the party.
The AMMK leader said that if all the followers of the late Chief Minister, J. Jayalalithaa united together, then it was easy to defeat the DMK in both the loksabha and even in the assembly elections. TTV Dhinakaran said that the AIADMK was in the hands of the wrong persons and added that he would retrieve the party from them.
The AMMK general secretary said, “ Ours is a growing organization and we have cadres who are determined to re-establish Amma (Jayalalithaa’s ) rule and we would strive for that.”
TTV Dhinakaran also said that the party is planning to strike a political alliance with like-minded parties. He said that the idea of the party was to defeat the DMK and added that the party was open to alliance with either of the two national parties, Congress or BJP.
However, he clearly said that if such an alliance does not materialize, the AMMK would fight the polls alone.
