AIADMK does not have any ties with BJP: EPS

The opposition All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (AIADMK) on Sunday asserted that his party had no ties with the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party at the Centre and slammed other political parties for spreading “false messages” in the media.AIADMK General Secretary Edappadi K Palaniswami said his party had taken a “firm stand” of severing ties with the AIADMK last year and appealed to the media not to raise questions on this topic anymore.“Some political parties still say that the AIADMK has some kind of indirect alliance with the BJP. I have told this repeatedly and even senior party leaders have clarified on many occasions; I will repeat it again: We do not have any alliance with the BJP,” Palaniswami said at a meeting in which several members of various political outfits joined the AIADMK.The former chief minister pointed out that a resolution was “unanimously” passed on September 25, 2023 at the party headquarters office in Chennai to sever ties with the BJP.
