Tamil Nadu Deputy CM Udhayanidhi Stalin claimed that the BJP wanted to take full control of the Union Territory just as it wanted to gain control of Tamil Nadu through Edappadi K Palaniswami-led AIADMK.

Campaigning for the DMK-led Secular Progressive Alliance candidates, Mr. Udhayanidhi said Puducherry people never allowed hate politics in this land of love.

“Today in such UT, the infiltration of fascist BJP forces has increased significantly. It has become a testing ground for all of the BJP’s anti-people policies. It is riding on the shoulders of AINRC, just as it is riding on the shoulders of Palaniswami-led AIADMK in Tamil Nadu,” he said.

The BJP’s anti-people policies include the National Education Policy and through it, the caste-based education system ( kula kalvi thittam) has been introduced, he alleged.

“They are implementing schemes that would ruin the future generations in Puducherry. But Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M.K. Stalin effectively halted the BJP’s conspiracies from entering the state,” Mr. Udhayanidhi said while addressing a poll rally in Mudaliarpet.
