Centre and BJP doesnt have any role in AIADMK’s internal matter: Venkaiah Naidu

Union Minister Venkaiah Naidu made it clear that Centre or BJP has no role in internal matters of crisis-ridden AIADMK. Naidu asserted that Governor C Vidyasagar Rao will take a decision in line with the Constitution to resolve the issue.

Rift widened within the AIADMK when acting CM O Panneerselvam on Tuesday night claimed that he was forced to resign from the post to pave the way for party General Secretary VK Sasikala's elevation to the post.

“I don't want to comment on what is happening internally in AIADMK. And Centre and BJP doesn't have any role in it.

“Secondly, the allegations against the Governor too are wrong. He will take the right decision at the right time in line with the Constitution and after seeking opinion of legal experts,” he told reporters.

When asked about allegations levelled against him by some of his opponents that BJP was behind him, Pannerselvam on Wednesday said, “They (his opponent) don't have any strong ground against me. They can't level any allegation against me.”
