Pattali Makkal Katchi’s unconditional support for the National Democratic Alliance government at the Centre should be reciprocated by the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in Tamil Nadu, said its chief ministerial candidate Anbumani Ramadoss here on Thursday.
Addressing reporters on the sidelines of the Kanyakumari district unit’s general body meeting, Dr. Anbumani said that the BJP was a small party in the State and hence it should reciprocate PMK’s unconditional support committed for five years at the Centre.
In the last four decades, people of Tamil Nadu had voted alternatively for two Dravidian parties but, disappointed with corruption, they would find an appropriate alternative in the PMK Fifty per cent of the undecided voters would support the PMK in the 2016 election, he claimed.
