Amit Shah's TN Mission: BJP Eyes 120 Seats, But Two Leaders Pose Alliance Challenge

• BJP's core committee, led by Amit Shah, discussed strategy to contest around 120 seats in upcoming Tamil Nadu assembly elections.
• The party aims to strengthen its alliance with AIADMK under EPS, focusing on winnable seats in Coimbatore, Kanyakumari, Madurai, Chennai, and Rameswaram.
• A major challenge is bringing TTV Dhinakaran and O. Panneerselvam (OPS) factions into the NDA to consolidate AIADMK's traditional vote bank.
• Dhinakaran and OPS hold significant influence among the Thevar community, crucial for the alliance's success against DMK.
• Shah instructed leaders to strengthen the organization at the booth level and coordinate with allies, aiming for NDA's first win in Tamil Nadu.
