The question on alliance was posed to Palaniswami as the Minister for Milk and Dairy Development K T Rajenthra Bhalaji on Friday said there was nothing wrong with aligning with the Bharatiya Janata Party

Palaniswami also said with 134 legislators, the AIADMK commands a majority in the assembly.

Meanwhile, Fisheries Minister D Jayakumar on Saturday told reporters here that the government would prove its majority in the assembly if DMK calls for a floor test.
