AMMK leader TTV Dhinakaran, on Saturday, blamed BJP’s Tamil Nadu president Nainar Nagendran for forcing him to pull his party out of the NDA. Speaking to reporters in Madurai, Dhinakaran said the ill treatment of O Panneerselvam, after AIADMK rejoined the NDA, too, prompted him to leave the BJP-led front. The AMMK parted ways with NDA on 3 September.
