AIADMK-TMC truck may overturn in TN

Ties between the All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam and the Tamil Maanila Congress are on the brink of collapse. The AIADMK has named Dr V Mythereyan, its doctor's wing president, as its candidate for the by-election to the Rajya Sabha to fill up the vacancy caused by the death of TMC president G K Moopanar.

AIADMK chief Jayalalithaa said in a statement in Chennai on Thursday that the party parliamentary board had decided to contest the seat and named Mythereyan its nominee.

TMC president G K Vasan had told reporters on Wednesday that the alliance between his party and the AIADMK continued.

TMC sources termed the AIADMK's decision as a "setback" to the "friendly ties" between the two parties.

Mythereyan had quit the Bharatiya Janata Party after it decided to align with the Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam for the 1999 Lok Sabha polls.
