On one hand, Vijay took oath as Tamil Nadu Chief Minister alongside his new ally Rahul Gandhi in Chennai. On the other, Prime Minister Narendra Modi, while addressing BJP workers in neighbouring Karnataka, took a swipe at the Congress, calling it “parasitic” in nature.
Referring to the Congress’s decision to dump its long-time ally DMK in favour of TVK, PM Modi said in Bengaluru, “It has turned into a parasitic party. They are fighting over looted money. At the first opportunity, it is ready to ditch its own ally. There is no party that the Congress has not backstabbed.”
