It is better to merge MDMK with DMK - MDMK Chairman Duraisamy

Speaking to reporters in Tirupur, MDMK leader Duraisamy said, "MDMK has become empty like an empty tin. "There is no future for MDMK and it is better to join DMK now in the interest of the youth," he said.



Tirupur: MDMK leader Duraisamy has said that there is no future for the MDMK.

MDMK floor leader Duraisamy wrote to Vaiko five times but did not respond. He had written a letter asking him to merge MDMK into the DMK. The letter was released and created a stir.

In this context, MDMK leader Duraisamy spoke to reporters at the MDMK trade union office in Tirupur on Monday



There is no instigation of anyone to break the MDMK. There is no need to say anything that others say. Break it down where the party is.

MDMK is empty like an empty tin. There is no future for MDMK. It is better to join the DMK now in the interest of the youth in the party. I don't care about what anyone says. They say it's a fight over union property.

I was the first to start the DMK’s trade union in Tamil Nadu. The trade union will be controlled by the rules (by law). There are no political parties. The assets will be in the name of the in-charge of the society and not in the name of an individual. One can't sign and carry anything away. They are talking without knowing the details.

He has bought only the Thayagam building under the special name V. Gopalaswamy. But we have bought it only in the name of general secretary and treasurer. The aim of starting the party is not today. The MDMK has weakened. 100 members are required as members to set up a branch corporation. But they are cheating by registering false names.

I will fight for the principles of Periyar and Anna. I will support the DMK. I will not join the party. Vaiko says he did not take me seriously as he could not answer my question. “
