Coming to power in 2026 not an impossible goal: party leader
PMK founder S. Ramadoss on Wednesday said his party will lead future electoral alliances in the State.
“Those who accept our leadership can join us. Be sure that we will lead and form a separate alliance. Have no doubts about whether we would change this stance or move to this or that alliance,” he told cadre while addressing the party’s special general body meeting in Chennai.
“The goal to come to power in 2026 is a difficult one, but not impossible,” a resolution adopted at the meeting said. Recalling the decision of the party to go it alone in 2016, the resolution said that had this stance continued in 2021, the PMK could have increased its chances of victory. The party aligned itself with the AIADMK “to secure reservation for the Vanniyar community in education and jobs”, it said.
