**BJP Accused of Orchestrating AIADMK Turmoil, Claims VCK Leader**
**CHENNAI, September 11, 2025** – Viduthalai Chiruthaigal Katchi (VCK) leader and Member of Parliament Thol. Thirumavalavan has levied serious accusations against the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), alleging that the national party is directly responsible for the ongoing internal strife within the All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (AIADMK).
Speaking to reporters in Chennai today, Thirumavalavan stated, “The BJP thinks if they weaken one Dravidian party, they can expand in the State. The senior AIADMK leaders should understand this and act accordingly.”
He pointed to a series of events within the AIADMK, including the perceived marginalization of V.K. Sasikala and O. Panneerselvam, the formation of a separate party by T.T.V. Dhinakaran, and reported dissenting voices within the party, as evidence of the BJP’s meddling. “Who is responsible for this? The only answer for all these questions is BJP,” he asserted.
Thirumavalavan urged senior AIADMK leaders to recognize the alleged BJP interference and take “precautionary steps” to safeguard the party. He refrained from commenting on PMK founder S. Ramadoss’s decision to expel his son, Anbumani, from the party.
Beyond the AIADMK issue, Thirumavalavan also reiterated his call for the Tamil Nadu state government to enact a specific law to curb caste-based killings, a persistent problem within the region.
