    ‘No Transparency’: Congress MP Jothimani Slams Seat Selection In DMK-Led Alliance

    Chennai, Mar 28 (PTI) Congress MP from Karur constituency, S Jothimani, has alleged a total lack of transparency in the party's constituency selection process as part of DMK-led alliance in Tamil Nadu for the April 23 Assembly election, claiming the interests of the party have been "completely compromised".

    "There's no transparency in the party's constituency selection. Our view that seats should be chosen after detailed discussion and with transparency was rejected by those in charge," Jothimani said in a strongly-worded social media post on March 27.

    Congress was allotted 28 seats in the DMK-led alliance in Tamil Nadu.

    The MP’s outburst comes at a time when major political players in the state, including the DMK and AIADMK, are finalising their strategies for the upcoming electoral battle, with newcomers like Vijay’s Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK) also drawing significant attention.

    Jothimani accused the state leadership of conducting the seat-sharing and selection process in a "highly secretive manner", ignoring calls for detailed discussions and an open approach.

    She expressed deep anguish over the treatment of grassroots workers. "It is painful to see the years of hard work by loyal Congress volunteers being sold off by those who haven't contributed even a speck to the party's growth in Tamil Nadu," she stated.

    Issuing a stern warning regarding the impending candidate selection, Jothimani remarked that if this "mercenary or sales-based approach" continues, "no one can save the Congress party in Tamil Nadu." The MP indicated she would not remain a silent spectator to these developments and promised a more detailed statement once the official list of constituencies and candidates is made public.
