Only AIADMK can oppose DMK: Velumani

AIADMK whip and ex-minister SP Velumani on Friday said only the AIADMK has the wherewithal to oppose the ruling DMK.

“There are some parties, which try to project themselves as bigger by involving in protests. But, only the AIADMK has the strength to oppose the DMK. The AIADMK, which was in rule for 31 years in Tamil Nadu has introduced several good schemes. Only people should say as to which party is bigger in Tamil Nadu,” he said while addressing MLAs and party functionaries in Coimbatore.

Alleging that no development works were taken up in Tamil Nadu after MK Stalin assumed charge as Chief Minister, Velumani said that even schemes brought by AIADMK’s interim general secretary Edappadi K Palaniswami have been curtailed.

Pointing out that AIADMK is a party that fights for issues of people, Velumani said the AIADMK will win all the 40 seats in Lok Sabha polls and more than 200 seats in the assembly polls in Tamil Nadu. “After polls, Edappadi K Palaniswami will become the Chief Minister,” he added.
