Chennai: Tamil Nadu Congress Committee president E.V.K.S. Elangovan on Saturday subtly indicated the possibility of an alignment of secular forces including DMK, Congress and Left parties against the ruling AIADMK in Tamil Nadu for 2016 Assembly elections.
Addressing a packed Sathyamurthy Bhavan auditorium, which brimmed to pay tributes to Jnanpith award winner Jayakanthan, Elangovan said, “Fruit should ripen. It is inevitable. We should wait.”
“Otherwise I would have commented about the dais here,” he said, referring to DMK MP Kanimozhi, CPI’s state deputy secretary Subbaraian and CPI (M) MP T.K.S. Rangarajan sharing the dais at the event.
“I will not say how and when it will ripen. But it will happen at the opportune moment. It will be made public then,” the TNCC chief said indicating the union of the three parties for 2016, after hitting out at the AIADMK.
