Tiruneveli: Making a fervent plea, senior BJP leader and Union minister for urban development and parliament affairs Venkaiah Naidu said Tamil Nadu should “join the National mainstream” by electing an Assembly that could work in tandem with the Prime Minister Narendra Modi-led government at the Centre for ‘better growth of the State’.
Campaigning for the BJP’s candidates in this southern district on Sunday for the May 16 Assembly polls, Mr Naidu squarely blamed both the DMK and AIADMK, which have ruled the state between them for nearly 50 years now, for Tamil Nadu’s overall stagnation and competing with each other “in doing corruption”.
Mr Naidu urged the Tamil Nadu electorate to choose between the ‘freebies’ of the Dravidian parties and the development agenda of the BJP.
