Mystery Surrounds AIADMK's Split with NDA

BJP Tamil Nadu Chief Nainar Nagenthiran expressed uncertainty over O Panneerselvam's decision to exit the NDA alliance. Despite ongoing discussions and the potential meeting arrangement with PM Modi, Panneerselvam's motives remain unclear. Nagenthiran denied claims of AIADMK pressure influencing the decision and called for reconsideration.

BJP Tamil Nadu leader Nainar Nagenthiran stated on Friday that he is unclear about the reasons prompting former Tamil Nadu Chief Minister O Panneerselvam's departure from the NDA alliance.

Nagenthiran minimized the significance of Panneerselvam's July 31 declaration to cut ties with the BJP-led coalition, candidly expressing his lack of awareness about the underlying causes.

Addressing inquiries about the unfulfilled meeting with PM Narendra Modi, Nagenthiran assured his willingness to facilitate it after Panneerselvam's surprising alliance withdrawal.
