Chennai: Accusing AIADMK and DMK of using money power to win the Assembly election, PMK leader Anbumani Ramadoss on Friday said his party has emerged as an alternative to Dravidian parties even though it had not won a seat. PMK’s general council would meet soon and review the party’s election performance and future course of action, he said.
“We had functioned as a real opposition party in the State for the last five years. We will work more vigorously than ever before. We will function as proper opposition,” the Dharmapuri MP told reporters.
Anbumani, who himself lost in Pennagaram that comes under Dharmapuri Lok Sabha constituency, said both the parties won seats by distributing money to voters.
“Dravidian parties have made politics as a business but we do it as a service,” he said, adding his party’s policies had created an impact on the people. He said the PMK had become a trendsetter in politics as all other parties were following its stand on prohibition, Lokayukta and freebies.
