Amma Makkal Munnetra Kazagam (AMMK) chief TTV Dhinakaran met Union minister and BJP Tamil Nadu election in-charge Piyush Goyal on Wednesday as his party rejoined the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) in the state ahead of the 2026 Tamil Nadu Assembly elections.
Earlier in the day, Dhinakaran said past differences should not be allowed to stand in the way of the party’s broader interests, as his party gets ready to rejoin the NDA.
Speaking to reporters, Dhinakaran said, “We are happy to be back in the NDA alliance. Forgetting the past, we wanted to bring back Amma’s government. To stop this government, we will form Amma’s government. You all know who the NDA CM candidate is…for AMMK and Tamil Nadu’s welfare, we have forgotten about all the betrayal.”
The NDA, led by the AIADMK and the BJP in Tamil Nadu, will aim to unseat the ruling DMK-Congress alliance. The battle is set to become three-cornered after actor-turned-politician Vijay launched his party, Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK), and sought the top post in the state.
Tamil Nadu is due to hold Assembly elections in the first half of 2026.
