Union Minister Piyush Goyal has sparked controversy by accusing the DMK regime in Tamil Nadu of being 'corrupt', stating that the state has suffered under their rule. Goyal, a senior BJP leader, made the remarks during a meeting with AIADMK chief Edappadi K Palaniswami to discuss the upcoming Assembly polls in March-April 2026. Goyal expressed confidence that the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) will secure a 'sweeping victory' in the polls. He emphasized the importance of good governance, development-focused policies, and a better future for the people of Tamil Nadu. The BJP leader also highlighted the commitment of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the NDA to provide a more prosperous future for the state's residents. The meeting between Goyal and Palaniswami was attended by senior AIADMK leaders, including K P Munusamy, S P Velumani, and P Thangamani, as well as BJP officials. The two parties have reportedly agreed to work together to defeat the DMK government in the upcoming polls. Goyal's statement comes as the BJP and AIADMK seek to form an alliance ahead of the Tamil Nadu Assembly elections. The NDA is expected to face off against the DMK in the polls, with the AIADMK playing a crucial role in the alliance. The outcome of the elections will have significant implications for the state's politics and governance.
