Transcript
00:00Political potboiler from the state of Tamil Nadu, which is pole-bound.
00:04Oh, Paneer Selvam raining fire now on the AIDMK after joining the DMK.
00:08The former Tamil Nadu chief minister called Edapadi K. Palen Swami an arrogant man
00:13and said that he would bring about the downfall of the AIDMK.
00:18He also said that there is no future for the AIDMK.
00:21OPS then hailed Stalin, thanking him for bringing him into the DMK fold.
00:26The former chief minister said Stalin is a leader known for Dravidian pride
00:30and expressed confidence in DMK returning to power.
00:33Chief Minister Stalin has welcomed OPS in his party
00:36and said he joined DMK to safeguard the Dravidian ideology.
00:40He is also called former CM humble and a virtuous person.
00:44AIDMK came down heavily on OPS, saying he's got no shame
00:47and calling him an ungrateful opportunist.
00:51The party further said OPS has got no right to Ammar's legacy.
00:57BJP has also slammed O Paneer's album today, calling him ungrateful
01:01and said that OPS seeks power, not loyalty.
01:04India today has access and inside scoop on why OPS joined the DMK.
01:09Sources say DMK gave OPS two options.
01:12He could either join as an ally or join the party.
01:15Sources say OPS may be contesting from the Bodhi Naya Kanur seat
01:21in the upcoming elections.
01:23Regarding this decision not to join the NDA,
01:26sources have indicated that OPS was dejected with BJP
01:30as he felt that the party had failed to convince EPS.
01:47Sources say OPS.
02:00Sir, do you have found thehey, sisterhood of Gu proRAC,
02:05so you should ask for the
02:07Barakar occasion.
02:07Floor 1 years on question.
02:09There are two people of Guam bo pro raM boo.
02:28Sir, you've joined with the AI-DMK today. How happy are you?
02:33I'm so excited and very happy.
02:35Sir, do you believe DMK is going to be the future of Kamalaam?
02:39Sure, sure, sure, sure.
02:39And being loyalist of Bodhi Naya Kanur as well, how do you believe the AI-ADMK cadders and the people
02:45of Taini and several others will support you this time?
02:48So don't talk about the ADMK. The future is DMK.
02:51And EPS says this is a traitor, so how do you respond to this?
02:56Do you believe EPS is going to lose this election?
02:59No comments. Surely he will not.
03:01How did you bring OPS, a man of the AI-DMK, into your party?
03:04See, he was the senior leader of the ADMK. He was thrice selected by Jay Lalitha herself as to run
03:13the state as chief minister.
03:17He was the choice of Jay Lalitha. But EPS had sidelined him. He did not give respect to him.
03:23He had manipulated his position as chief minister, and he does not even respect him.
03:33But he has been a major critic of DMK earlier, all forgotten.
03:37No, no. See, when he is in ADMK, it was a fight between DMK and ADMK. But still, what EPS
03:46is,
03:46he had fallen at the feet of BJP. So nobody would try to join that party.
