In a major setback for the opposition alliance, the Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam ohas said that it will not take part in the Indian National Developmental Inclusive Alliance (INDIA) meeting to be held in New Delhi on June 8 since the Congress party will be participating in it.
The DMK’s decision is a continuation of its strident stand against the Congress party ever since the national party snapped ties with it by joining hands with the Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam which won the Tamil Nadu assembly elections.
The Dravidian major said it will not participate in the meeting in order to respect the sentiments of its cadres who were deeply hurt by the betrayal of the Congress party.
In deference to the sentiments of the DMK cadres who are deeply hurt by the betrayal of the Congress party, the party will not take part in the India bloc meeting in New Delhi on June 8, the DMK said.
‘That is, the DMK will not take part in the meeting in which the Congress party participates,’ a release from the DMK headquarters said.
The DMK said it received an invitation to take part in the INDIA bloc meeting to be held at the Constitution Club in the national capital.
