Chennai: It seems the NaMo magic is spreading everywhere with DMK chief M Karunanidhi saying that Bharatiya Janata Party`s prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi is a good friend.
Karunanidhi, the former Tamil Nadu chief minister was quoted by a Tamil newspaper Dinamalar as saying that the Gujarat Chief Minister`s continuous campaigning for upcoming crucial General Elections shows that Modi is very hard working.
When asked about the possible outcome of the upcoming Lok Sabha polls, Karunanidhi refused to comment on the post poll scenario.
The DMK chief`s warming up to Modi is a good sign for the BJP as Karunanidhi had recently said that his party would not align with the Congress for the parliamentary elections.
Interestingly, Karunanidhi`s arch rival J Jayalalithaa is also a very good friend of the BJP strongman.
Lok Janshakti Party (LJP) chief Ramvilas Paswan on Thursday returned to the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) fold and announced an alliance with the BJP for the Lok Sabha elections.
The announcement was made by Paswan along with BJP president Rajnath Singh.
Addressing a joint press conference with Paswan, Singh said, “The process of expansion of NDA has begun; Lok Janshakti Party leader Ram Vilas Paswan has decided that his party will be part of the NDA. We have finalized seat sharing, I am confident that the alliance will help the NDA in Bihar.”
