NDA alliance seat-sharing talks to begin after PM's Tamil Nadu visit: State BJP chief

The BJP's Tamil Nadu chief has announced that seat-sharing discussions for the NDA alliance will commence following Prime Minister Modi's upcoming visit to the state. This statement comes amid rising tensions between the BJP and the ruling Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK) party. The BJP leader criticized the DMK government for its handling of law and order issues, alleging that it is undermining the authority of government officials. The seat-sharing negotiations are crucial for the BJP as it seeks to strengthen its political foothold in Tamil Nadu ahead of the elections. The Prime Minister's visit is expected to serve as a key platform for the BJP to rally support and outline its agenda in the state, which has historically been a challenging battleground for the party. The discussions will likely focus on strategic allocations of seats to maximize electoral success in the upcoming elections, demonstrating the BJP’s intent to solidify alliances in key regions.
