EPS Slams DMK's 'Dynasty Politics', Questions Karunanidhi Family's Dominance
- •AIADMK General Secretary Edappadi K. Palaniswami (EPS) attacked the ruling DMK, accusing it of promoting "dynasty politics" and questioning the rise of Karunanidhi family members.
- •EPS specifically targeted Deputy CM Udhayanidhi Stalin's elevation, asking if it was solely due to being "born into the Karunanidhi family."
- •He contrasted Udhayanidhi's rise with senior DMK leader Durai Murugan, who despite being the longest-serving MLA and MISA Act imprisonment, never received similar opportunities.
- •Palaniswami highlighted the Karunanidhi family's hold on key party positions (Stalin as leader, Udhayanidhi as Youth Wing head, Kanimozhi as Women's Wing head).
- •EPS also questioned the stability of the DMK-Congress alliance, suggesting uncertainty ahead of the elections.
Why It Matters: EPS criticizes DMK's dynastic politics and alliance stability, urging change before elections.
