TN former CM Late Karunanidhi elder son MK Azhagiri throws a open challenge on the Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK) president MK Stalin who is campaigning to become chief minister in the upcoming assembly elections in Tamil Nadu. The expelled DMK leader MK Alagiri on Sunday challenged Stalin that My supporters won't let u become CM.
In a meeting with his supporters in Madurai district on Sunday, MK Azhagiri said, “There are posters hailing you as the future chief minister but you can never become chief minister. My associates and supporters will never let you become one". In supporting the leader's challenge, “If DMK don’t take annan (brother Alagiri) back, we won’t let Stalin become chief minister,” the Alagiri loyalist who attended the meeting said. The prolonged sibling rivalry was escalated by Azhagiri even as he said that he didn’t wish to become chief minister. He accused Stalin of betraying him and said that their father and DMK patriarch M Karunanidhi was planning to take him back into the party before he fell ill.
He informed that he would soon announce his decision on starting a party. Thousands of people from Madurai, Theni and Nellai had gathered in the streets of Madurai and waited inside a jam-packed hall to welcome Alagiri who arrived in a campaign vehicle. His supporters urged him to start a new party. Through his speech he made a concrete statement that he worked hard for DMK’s victory in several places and made a mark in Madurai without wishing for a party post. “Did I betray the party?” Alagiri said. “What mistake did I make?”
