Chennai: Tamilnadu Revenue Minister and senior AIADMK leader R B Udhayakumar today said DMDK members have every right to say that their leader Vijayakanth would be the king (in the next Assembly elections).
Speaking to the media, he however said the actor-politician’s party is still a part of the AIADMK-led alliance in the State.
As Vijayakanth turned 68 on Tuesday, his wife and DMDK treasurer V Premalatha said the wish of the party workers was that it should go alone in the next Assembly polls and should remain as a ‘King’.
Talking to reporters here, she said the wish of the DMDK cadres was that it should go it alone in the elections due in 7-8 months time.
She said during the online consultations held with various district functionaries in view of the Covid-19 pandemic, support grew for the DMDK to face the Assembly polls alone.
Premalatha, however, maintained that its alliance with the ruling AIADMK in Tamilnadu, formed for the 2019 Lok Sabha polls, continue till date.
