Cong to continue alliance with DMK in TN local body polls: Alagiri

Tamil Nadu Congress Committee (TNCC) president K.S. Alagiri on Tuesday said that the alliance with the DMK would continue in the ensuing local body polls in nine new districts.

K.S. Alagiri told IANS, “We have already commenced our preparations for the local body polls in the nine new districts of Tamil Nadu. We had a detailed meeting with party office bearers on Monday at the party headquarters and have chalked out strategies and plans for the win in the local body polls. We will continue our political alliance with the DMK in the elections.”

The senior Congress leader also said that in the 2021 Assembly elections, the party contested 25 seats and won 18. He said that among all the parties, Congress has the highest winning percentage in the Assembly elections.

Alagiri came out heavily against Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman on her comments that fuel prices cannot be reduced and said that it was the mindset of the Union government that resulted in an unprecedented increase in the fuel prices.
