BJP more cunning than AIADMK, says Karunanidhi

CHENNAI: DMK chief M Karunanidhi on Friday said people of Tamil Nadu should be watchful against BJP strengthening its base in the state as it was more cunning than AIADMK.

Charging that BJP leaders were making attempts to destroy DMK by triggering defection within the Dravidian party, he said so far they have failed in their efforts. "BJP has gained foothold and attempts are being made to deceive the people of Tamil Nadu," he charged, in an apparent reference to about 500 DMK supporters joining BJP under the leadership of actor Napoleon recently.


Earlier, charging the BJP-led government at the Centre with indulging in communal politics, DMK general council appealed to various political parties and movements in the country to bury their regional and political differences and confront communal forces.


In a resolution, the party accused the Union ministers and leaders of Hindu outfits like RSS and Hindu Maha Sabha of making controversial statements, including referring to Gandhi's killer Nathuram Godse as a patriot, and attempting to install his statues across the country. The resolution slammed BJP for observing Christmas as Good Governance Day as it happens to be BJP leader A B Vajpayee's birthday.


Such actions would destabilize peace and tranquility in the country, the resolution said. The party criticized the Modi government for deviating from its path of development agenda. The saffron party also faced flak for its effort to impose Hindi and Sanskrit in schools across the country.


In another resolution, DMK charged that Jayalalithaa was running the state government by proxy. The party would hold a massive rally to the Raj Bhavan, demanding that a commission of inquiry be instituted to probe the irregularities committed by the AIADMK regime.


The party criticized the government for failing to sort out inter-state water disputes, maintain law and order and control prices of essential commodities.
