Alliance with BJP only for polls, not for coalition govt: EPS

Edappadi K Palaniswami clarified that AIADMK’s alliance with BJP is solely for the 2026 election, not a commitment to a coalition government. He emphasized respecting each party’s autonomy, while BJP’s Nainar Nagenthran stated coalition decisions rest with party leaders. Palaniswami criticized DMK’s discomfort, asserting the alliance aims for Tamil Nadu’s development.
