·         BJP’s comeback in Tamil Nadu in 2024 will solidify our party’s position.

·         The I.N.D.I.A, alliance will not crumble.

Chennai, 12th October 2023 –  ABP Network’s ‘The Southern Rising’ Summit, a premier platform for dynamic discussions, successfully hosted a high-profile panel discussion on the recently concluded General Election 2024. Esteemed political figures, Kavitha Kalvakuntla, Member of Legislative Council (MLC) – Kamareddy & Nizamabad, Former Member of Parliament (MP), and dedicated worker of the BRS Party, Karti P Chidambaram, Member of Parliament (MP) for Sivaganga representing the Indian National Congress (INC); and K. Annamalai, State President of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) for Tamil Nadu, shared their invaluable insights on “General Election 2024: Who Wins, Who Loses?”.

In an event reflection, these influential voices provided their perspectives on the political landscape, emerging trends, and the outcomes of this crucial event.

K. Annamalai, State President of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) for Tamil Nadu said, “BJP Tamil Nadu is an ambitious party, and we are determined to reach our goals. The upcoming 2024 elections are pivotal, with just seven months to go. BJP’s comeback in Tamil Nadu in 2024 will solidify our party’s position.”

To this, “Kavitha Kalvakuntla, Member of Legislative Council (MLC) – Kamareddy & Nizamabad, Former Member of Parliament (MP), and dedicated worker of the BRS Party said countered, “People don’t want power hungry parties. The people want a decisive Government. She further adds“India has its own versatility and diversity. Regional parties have performed better than both national parties. Both couldn’t realize their full potential and have disappointed the people of the nation. We are neither with Congress nor BJP.  I.N.D.I.A, alliance will crumble. Post-poll alliances have historically worked, while pre-poll alliances have not. I believe every party will need to rethink their strategy.

On being asked that India alliance may crumble, Karti P Chidambaram, Member of Parliament for Sivaganga (INC), “It is the Congress party which is present in all 5 states. The alliance will not crumble. In these 5 states, INC will perform exceptionally well.”

With decades of collective experience and representing diverse political ideologies, this panel discussion served as a beacon of knowledge, offering a deep understanding of the electoral dynamics that have shaped India’s future.

‘The Southern Rising’ Summit was conceptualized and instituted by ABP Network as a tribute to the exceptional growth, cultural opulence, and societal harmony exemplified by the southern states of India.  It aims to celebrate the spirit and richness of southern states, united on a singular mission of driving a transformative journey for India. The summit thus witnesses profound deliberations and sharing of insights by the movers and shakers of South Indian states and Union Territories.
