K Annamalai Plans New Political Movement Amid Speculation of BJP ExitPreviousNext

Former Tamil Nadu BJP chief K Annamalai is reportedly considering launching a new political movement in the state. While some sources suggest he may quit BJP and form a new party, others indicate he plans to build a volunteer base through a non-profit initiative called 'We the leaders' without immediate plans for a political party. BJP leaders have downplayed exit rumours, and Annamalai continues to express support for Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
