The BJP is having discussions with friendly parties and it will definitely have a tie-up in Tamil Nadu for the coming Lok Sabha polls, the party's general secretary P Muralidhar Rao said Tuesday.
"We are having discussions with friendly parties. Definitely BJP will have alliance and the alliance in Tamil Nadu will be for good governance and positive development," he said.
There is progress in the discussions, he said.
Asked if AIADMK leader and Lok Sabha Deputy Speaker M Thambidurai attacking the Centre over demonetisation and implementation of Goods and Services Tax in Parliament would scuttle the chances of a possible alliance with that party, he said "AIADMK has not issued such kind of statement.."
When repeatedly asked about Thambidurai, he said "I am not talking about any individual..."
Rao said he was here to collect ideas from various sectors for the BJP's vision document for the 2019 elections, as part of the party's 'Mann Ki Baat, Modi ke Saath.'
