TVK rules out alliance with BJP

Chennai: Actor Vijay's TVK has denied any ongoing alliance talks with the BJP, reaffirming its stance against tying up with the saffron party, while BJP leaders express optimism. In Tenkasi, BJP state president Nainar Nagenthran said, "good things will happen." S Veera Vigneshwaran, spokesperson for TVK which seems to have declined the overtures and maintained its distance from the NDA, rejected any alliance talks and reiterated that the party would never tie up with the BJP, which he described as a "sectarian force involved in divisive politics." He recalled Vijay's stance during last year's party state-level conference at Vikravandi where the actor-politician described the DMK as a "political enemy" and the BJP as an "ideological enemy. " Asked about an alliance with TVK, Union home minister Amit Shah, in an interview with a Tamil daily, stated that there was enough time for the election. "Everything would be clear at the right time," Shah said. In Pudukottai, former AIADMK minister K T Rajenthra Bhalaji stated that all political parties opposing DMK, including TVK, must join hands with the AIADMK to oust DMK from power.
