In a humorous swipe, Tamil Nadu's Deputy Chief Minister Udhayanidhi Stalin declared that AIADMK's Chief, Edappadi K Palaniswami, should remain its leader for a century, suggesting it would simplify political competition for the ruling DMK.
Speaking at an interactive session with DMK functionaries in Virudhunagar, Udhayanidhi recounted past incidents involving Palaniswami and ambulances, using them to underscore claims of AIADMK's challenges. He mentioned a stalled ambulance during an AIADMK event and added that tensions within the opposition party result from BJP's fragmentation strategy.
The Deputy Chief Minister further mocked the AIADMK's internal divisions, listing various party factions, and challenged Palaniswami's campaign to 'protect and retrieve Tamil Nadu' by questioning its effectiveness amid their current predicament.
