DMK sounds Poll bugle with grand meet
  • 5 years ago
DMDK leader Vijayakanth is in a catch-22 situation. DMK president M. Karunanidhi has literally cast him bait by announcing pa­rty propaganda secretary 'Tiruchy' Siva as candidate for (the sixth seat) Rajya Sa­bha polls to be held on Fe­bruary 7.
Vijayakanth who fled to Malaysia in a hush-hush manner amid rumours of him tilting saffron way has fewer options. Either he has to bite the bullet and suppo­rt Siva or take DMK support for his candidate, ther­eby concretising his allia­nce with the DMK for the Lok Sabha polls, perhaps for a future quid pro quo or dare the DMK by banking on the five votes of the Con­gress, which is also keen on warming up to the DMK to overcome a rout in LS poll.
Though Vijayakanth co­uld abstain from the RS polls and keep all guessing for the Lok Sabha election, DMK is confident that the actor-politician would not risk throwing in the towel during election season.
