Will he, received’t he? Hypothesis is rife that O Panneerselvam will be part of BJP after elections or float a celebration like T T V Dhinakaran. The previous chief minister says that although he has no plans in the meanwhile, “anything can happen in the future”. In an interview to Julie Mariappan, the chief expelled from AIADMK, says he has substantial help amongst cadres and other people in his battle to reclaim the get together. He additionally alleges there’s a secret pact between chief minister M Okay Stalin and AIADMK normal secretary Edappadi Okay Palaniswami. Excerpts:From two leaves to the jackfruit. How has the journey been prior to now two years?The journey has at all times been about safeguarding the rights of cadres. The bylaws put in place by MGR and Amma (J Jayalalithaa) had been geared toward that. The basic rule that the overall secretary should be elected by all major members ought to stay unchanged. They (EPS group) amended the rule, which now requires {that a} candidate who needs to contest for the submit of normal secretary be proposed by at the least 10 district secretaries and seconded by one other 10 and may have served as headquarters officebearer for 5 years. Now we have substantial help from cadres and other people in our battle to reclaim the partyWhat are your prospects? My prospects are vibrant. Wait and see. ‘Why did you select to contest from Ramanathapuram?It’s a backward constituency. I chosen it to resolve points and win folks’s help.Why are you contesting as an unbiased candidate this election when your son, Ravindhranath, received from Theni constituency the final time?I had no plans to contest as I’m an MLA from Bodinayakanur, with two years left in workplace. We sought 16 seats from NDA to show our energy. Lastly, I made a decision to contest given the massive prices concerned within the election.Is it fallacious to return to single management to steer the get together?An 11-member steering committee was shaped after the merger. The committee was, nonetheless, not allowed to hold out its duties. As per the ‘dharmayudh agreement’, a committee was to handle get together points, the choices of which should be endorsed by coordinator and joint coordinator. I need the get together to be run democratically. PMK management says an alliance with AIADMK was struck in 2021 after bargaining for the vanniyar quota. Did you endorse the quota?When Palaniswami and I had been collectively, he would maintain all alliance talks alone. He by no means advised me something. As a courtesy, he would speak about different issues. He would show an authoritarian perspective and vanity because of wealth. I don’t have any feedback on the ten.5% quota. What do it’s a must to say about AIADMK severing ties with BJP?BJP cast a robust alliance, providing a seat (to EPS) beside PM Modi (first NDA assembly in Delhi in July final yr). What occurred every week later? Modi, who supported the Edappadi govt for 4 and a half years, gave a whole lot of initiatives to state. Noteworthy was the sanctioning of 11 medical faculties by a govt order, a course of that usually takes years. This gesture displays Modi’s fondness for Tamil Nadu. DMK president and chief minister M Okay Stalin supported Palaniswami’s request to allot your seat within the meeting to deputy chief of opposition R B Udhayakumar.Speaker M Appavu had earlier affirmed that as per meeting guidelines solely the chief of opposition holds a delegated place, not the deputy chief. He clarified that I used to be provided the seat within the entrance row in my capability as former chief minister. He has to reply as to why he retracted his assertion and shifted me to the again row. On the CM’s help (to EPS), all I can say is that there’s a secret understanding between them. Stalin says BJP is an enemy of not simply minorities however majorities too.Modi has successfully run his workplace for a decade, overseeing numerous states, languages, and cultures. No caste or spiritual conflicts occurred nationwide throughout his tenure. Modi’s inclusive method has garnered goodwill throughout states. Congress has misplaced its full energy whereas the BJP goes with full drive in each state. DMK and AIADMK have been coaching their weapons on BJP at Centre for not sanctioning initiatives or releasing enough funds and flood aid to state.Funds are sought throughout disasters and launched by following tips. Despite the fact that I (AIADMK govt) had requested 25,000 crore and30,000 crore in the direction of catastrophe aid, solely 3,000 crore and4,000 crore had been obtained. Centre says they provide what they provide to others. Do you suppose the Katchatheevu islet or Ram Temple will have an effect on normal elections?Fishermen from Ramanathapuram used to fish close to Katchatheevu islet till an settlement was reached between India and Sri Lanka to cede. They face big challenges now, with cases of being fired at, their nets broken, and belongings thrown into the ocean. Greater than 50 fishermen had been lately detained, and I had sought their secure launch. Karunanidhi govt within the state and the Congress govt at Centre had been liable for ceding the islet. So far as Ram Temple goes, devotees rejoice. Based on legend, Lord Ram worshipped Lord Shiva right here (Ramanathapuram) earlier than defeating Ravana in Lanka.There’s discuss that you could be be part of BJP after elections and even float a brand new get together similar to Dhinakaran.There isn’t a such plan now, however then once more something can occur. AIADMK is caught within the clutches of Palaniswami and I’m steering this motion to reclaim the get together. He has taken management of the highest ranks by shopping for them off. However cadres are with me. Your views on DMK govt.It has worsened. They didn’t fulfil their ballot guarantees. Simply displaying off. What are your guarantees for Ramanathapuram constituency?Vaigai river, the lifeline of Ramanathapuram, provides water earlier than getting into the Bay of Bengal. Verify dams are important. Creating industries can create employment and forestall migration. New airport in Ramanathapuram, coastal tourism and training centres for govt companies are some plans. Due to the efforts of Ravindhranath, Vande Bharat prepare companies will hyperlink Chennai and Rameswaram quickly.
