Speaking to reporters in Karur, Dhinakaran said, the party will win with more margin than the RK Nagar if bypoll is announced anytime for the Tiruparankundram constituency. “In fact, more number of parties has been sending feelers to join our alliance and we will wait until the election is announced,” he added. 

Meanwhile, he said, if the government can ask for CBI investigations for idol smuggling cases, then why can’t they do the same for investigating the Sterlite shootout or for the Namakkal egg scam cases. “There is something fishy about this move and I guess they’re trying to safeguard someone or trying to hide something big,” he said.
