BJP wants quick end to problems between TN allies
PRESS TRUST OF INDIA


CHENNAI, JAN 6: BJP today said the problems between two of the NDA constituents in Tamil Nadu should be resolved as quick as possible in view of the forthcoming state assembly polls.

State BJP General Secretary L Ganesan told mediapersons here that his party totally accepted the NDA leadership of Chief Minister and DMK Chief M Karunanidhi and likewise all the other constituents should also accept it.

He said BJP was not critical of the PMK and only wanted an early resolution to the problems between PMK and Tamizhaga Rajiv Congress. ``The problem between the two parties cannot indefinately continue. A stop has to be put,'' he said, adding that if the leaders of the two parties met Karunanidhi, he was confident the problem would be resolved.

When a reporter suggested that even MDMK GeneralSecretary Vaiko was joining issue with TRC Chief Vazhapadi K Ramamurthy, Ganesan said from a careful reading of what Vaiko had said, it was clear that he did not want TRC to be sent out of the NDA.

``Vaiko has criticised Ramamurthy saying he has startedthe controversy with PMK founder Dr S Ramadoss. But Vaiko has not advocated sending TRC out of the NDA. We want nobody to leave NDA and want more parties to join it,'' he said.
