Subramanian Swamy calls MK Alagiri a goon, backs Stalin to lead DMK

Bharataiya Janta Party (BJP) leader, Subramanian Swamy on Tuesday said that M K Alagiri is not a politician but a goonda. The BJP leader said, “Beton mein irshya hoti hai. Ek achha kar raha hai, dusre ko jalan ho jati hai. Alagiri (M K Alagiri) jo hai, vo to koi rajnaitik nahi hai, vo to dada hai. Zameen hadap karna, dhamkaana, murder karna, yahi uska kaam hai.” Swamy’s comments have come at a time amid suspense over who the political successor of Karunanidhi and the chief of Dravida Munnetra Kazagham (DMK) will be. The late leader's younger son M K Stalin is currently the working president of the party.
