Indian opposition come together at Tamil Nadu CM birthday |
On the occasion of Tamil Nadu Chief Minister MK Stalin`s 70th birthday, major Opposition party leaders showed their unity on the stage, which could give a sigh of relief to the Congress and some sleepless nights to the BJP. The occasion was marked not only by a show of strength by the key opposition leaders but also by their intentions to take on the BJP unitedly. The leaders included Bihar Deputy CM Tejashwi Yadav, Samajwadi Party leader Akhilesh Yadav, National Conference leader Farooq Abdullah, and others who all agreed to work unitedly to stop the saffron surge. Jammu Kashmir National Conference president Farooq Abdullah said there are chances for the DMK top leader and Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M K Stalin to become the Prime Minister if Opposition parties come together and win the general election in 2024. Abdullah said Congress should forget about the Prime Minister`s choice and focus only on winning the 2024 Lok Sabha polls. During his address, Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge said, "All like-minded-opposition parties must come together in this fight against divisive forces. That is our desire. I never said who will lead, (or) who will become the Prime Minister. We are not telling who will lead or who is not going to lead; that is not the question. We want to fight together unitedly. That is our desire.” Samajwadi Party leader Akhilesh Yadav praised DMK President and Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M K Stalin and expressed confidence that Stalin will rise to national prominence.
