Congress' Praveen Chakravarty Opens Up On Meenakshi Natarajan Row, Tamil Nadu Politics & More| WATCH

Congress leader Praveen Chakravarty spoke exclusively with Times Now's Dharini on his Rajya Sabha election, Meenakshi Natarajan Row, TVK's victory in Tamil Nadu & more. He said, "My RS nomination is a big responsibility. My role is to ensure that I fight for the rights of TN. BJP is trying to get a two thirds majority by breaking political parties and seat theft. They want to pass two bills specifically. Delimitation Bill and ONOE Bill.. So we need fearless voices in the parliament which I'll be giving. RO says Meenakshi Natarajan didn't disclose a case. There was no summons even in that case. It's a false reason to reject her nomination. Even if the RO had doubts, he could have sought clarifications. He should not have rejected. The BJP is doing this for one RS seat. Imagine how desparate they are. The simple question the DMK leadership should answer is what was the fear they had that they had secret back channel talks with ADMK for formation of a government? None of us even in our wildest dreams would have thought DMK and ADMK would attempt to come to power. But they went to that extent to stop TVK from coming to power. INDIA bloc from an election point of view was an alliance for the 2024 parliamentary elections. After that it is now a grouping to fight against the bills the BJP is trying to force in the Parliament. Like Delimitation and ONOE bills. The INDIA bloc is going to oppose it. Is the DMK going to oppose it. I find it a complete waste of my time to respond to questions related to DMK. First many said TVK wouldn't come to power and Vijay isn't a force. They were completely wrong.. Now they say his government is unstable.. Let's see." Watch the video to know more.
