In a recent political rally, AIADMK chief Edappadi K Palaniswami voiced concerns over former Tamil Nadu minister V Senthil Balaji, claiming his alleged involvement in a cash-for-job scam could result in political missteps for the ruling DMK.

Palaniswami, addressing the crowd, attacked Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M K Stalin for his seemingly contradictory support of Balaji. He highlighted Stalin's prior criticisms of Balaji and now his praising him, speculating that Balaji may lead to unfavorable conditions.

Furthermore, Palaniswami dismissed discussions on expelled leader O Panneerselvam, now aligned with the DMK, on what he deemed an inauspicious occasion, reinforcing his resolve to maintain focus on the electoral campaign.
