"I am grateful to party ...": Tamil Nadu BJP chief Annamalai after returning from abroad - World News Network

Coimbatore (Tamil Nadu) [India], December 1 (ANI): After returning from abroad, Tamil Nadu BJP President K Annamalai on Sunday expressed gratitude towards the party and its leadership for permitting him to take break of three months to complete his studies.
Upon reaching Coimbatore, Annamalai received a roused welcome from the party cadres and leaders and expressed happiness.
Tamil Nadu BJP President said, “I’m very happy that I was able to return today to Coimbatore. Our cadets and our leaders have come here to give me a great welcome. I am grateful to our party which permitted me to take a three-month break for my studies abroad. For the 3 months, our senior leaders did tremendous work here…”
Earlier today, Annamalai called the ruling Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam a “dynastic oriented party,” and said that 2026 assembly polls would probably be the end of DMK and its dynastic politics in the state.
Annamalai also criticised Deputy Chief Minister Udhayanidhi Stalin’s fast track promotion from MLA to minister to now as Deputy Chief Minister of the state.
“Mr Udhayanidhi Stalin wanted to come into politics. We are telling that this is an era of new family member coming in, probably the third generation to continue. They said no, no, he’ll be an MLA, then he became a minister, then he fast track as Deputy Chief Minister. Now Tamil Nadu politics is losing its merit. New people are not willing to enter and DMK is a prime example because you want to revolve around the same set of people and now Udhayanidhi Stalin coming up, probably Raja coming up, all sets of sons and daughters racing up. It clearly shows that it’s not a very democratic model and no model which is democratic and it will break eventually. And I’m very, very sure Udhayanidhi in entering would be a proof that DMK is a dynastic oriented party. It refuses to listen to other people and 2026 probably will be the end of DMK, will be the end of dynastic. We have to wait and watch,” Annamalai told reporters. (ANI)
