Describing the Congress-DMK tie-up in Tamil Nadu for the coming assembly polls as an "alliance of corruption", BJP today asserted that no party can form a government in the state without its support.
"The Congress-DMK alliance is an alliance of corruption while the four-party People's Welfare Front will not be of much help to the people," BJP State Unit President Tamilisai Soundararajan told reporters.
She claimed that no party could form a government in Tamil Nadu without the support of BJP.
The Congress party had entered into an electoral pact with DMK on February 13 to fight the assembly elections.
The People's Welfare Front, headed by Vaiko led MDMK, comprises CPI(M), CPI and Viduthalai Chiruthaigal Katchi.
Later, addressing a session on 'Startup India', organised by various industrial bodies, Tamilisai said, "Under the Narendra Modi government, India has become a powerful country within a span of 18 months, considering the development in almost all sectors.
