Briefing reporters on the deliberations, former Minister and senior leader KP Munusamy said the party has unanimously resolved to part ways with the NDA and steer a combination of like-minded parties in the next year’s polls. 

The resolution, without naming anyone, said the BJP’s state leadership has been of late defaming Dravidian stalwart, the late CN Annadurai, and late Chief Minister J. Jayalalitha besides criticizing its policies.
