    AIADMK alliance is money centric, not people centric: Stalin

  • "AIADMK alliance is money centric, not people centric. More than us, PMK has been critical of the AIADMK," said Stalin on AIADMK's alliance with BJP and PMK. The upcoming elections would be Stalin's first as DMK's chief after his father Karunanidhi's death in August 2018.
