Nagapattinam, Jan 09: MDMK General Secretary Vaiko said today his party's decision to quit NDA will not be reconsidered and despite his continued detention under Pota he is not worried about the "consequences" of not aligning with the BJP. Vaiko, who was brought to a court here in connection with a case, told reporters that there would be no change in his party's decision to quit NDA. He was "not perturbed about any eventuality that might arise from not aligning with the BJP", he added.
Vaiko said he was reciprocating the "brotherly affection" shown by DMK Chief M Karunanidhi towards him by choosing to align with the DMK for the coming Lok Sabha polls.
He said a strong alliance under the leadership of the Karunanidhi would emerge soon.

"Why are you thinking in that direction", he asked when a reporter asked him about the critical remarks made by him when DMK did not allot the required seats sought by his party during the last Lok Sabha polls.
Besides Vaiko, some members of the DMK and the communist parties were brought to the Chief Judicial Magistrate's court in connection with some incidents during the election campaign in 1983 by-poll for Mayiladuthurai Assembly constituency. The CJM Janathan Gnaniah, adjourned the case to February 20.
