Napoleon ditches DMK, jumps on BJP bandwagon

The BJP on Sunday made a major catch in Tamil Nadu. Former DMK leader and former union minister D Napoleon joined the party in the presence of its national president Amit Shah.

 

“I did not like the functioning of the DMK. There was no intra party democracy. The party elections were not conducted the way it should be,” he told reporters after formally joining the BJP at the party office. 

He is the third prominent person to join the BJP during the Shah’s two-day tour of the state. Lyricist 

Gangai Amaran and choreographer Gayathri Raguram had joined the party on Saturday.
