During his visit, the Chief Minister will inaugurate 'Anna Kalaignar Arivalayam', the DMK party office in New Delhi on April 2. DMK Parliamentary party leader and former Union Minister TR Baalu has met Congress president Sonia Gandhi, BJP president JP Nadda, and other senior leaders and extended the invitation of the DMK office inauguration.
Notably, the DMK is trying to catapult Stalin to the national stage as an alternative to the BJP during the 2024 polls and the Delhi office inauguration is considered a major meeting point with senior regional chieftains and to take up the coordination for an anti-NDA front at the national level.
While West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee and Telangana Chief Minister K Chandrashekhar Rao had traveled across the country and met senior opposition leaders for a joint front, Stalin is more acceptable as he maintains an excellent relationship with the Congress, CPM, and CPI which will be of use for a national anti-BJP front.
