Tamil Nadu Congress MP S. Jothimani has publicly criticized the state party unit, alleging internal conflicts and dilution of ideology are leading it towards "destruction" and away from Rahul Gandhi's principles. She cited an instance of an MP being allegedly prevented from submitting polling agent lists to the Election Commission. Jothimani warned of dangers from communal and divisive forces in Tamil Nadu. State Congress chief K. Selvaperunthagai's sources deny the allegations, stating internal issues are being addressed.
