In the middle of the heated exchanges, accusations, and disputes over the seat-sharing in Tamil Nadu Local body polls and coalition dharma, President of Tamil Nadu Congress Committee (TNCC) has, on Saturday, met with DMK President and State's Opposition leader M K Stalin following which TNCC President K.S.Alagiri had asserted that there is no crack or revolt in the DMK alliance.

While addressing the reporters at the DMK headquarters after meeting Stalin, Alagiri has apparently claimed that there are no problems between DMK and Congress party and no crack in the alliance. He cited that the Congress party had underlined the opinions the party had felt and stated that every political party has an opinion that won't cause a disturbance in the alliance.

Alagiri further stated that the leadership of the two parties would come together to ease the words of war that had erupted from the second line leaders of both the parties. By stating that the DMK and Congress observe a great friendship, Alagiri revealed that the alliance would be on between the parties during and after the Assembly elections 2021 and he cited that the two parties would have healthy debates as the debates hold the value in the democracy.

In his address, Alagiri had accused the ruling ADMK government of failing to raise the voice against the Central BJP government in Parliament and blamed the party for remaining dumb over raising the concerns against the Citizenship Amendment Act.

On January 10th, the leaders of the state Congress party had accused that the DMK has violated the coalition by not awarding the fair numbers of posts to the Congress party. The Congress party had stated that it has contested in rural body polls without having any formal agreements and claimed that the DMK hasn't cooperated with the party at the district level. In a joint statement, President of TNCC KS Alagiri and Legislative leader of Congress party KR Ramasamy have said that the DMK hasn't allotted even a single seat of district panchayat chief to Congress party while the state goes for 27 district panchayat chief posts and they unanimously cited that this is against the coalition dharma.
