NEW DELHI, June 2: Tamil Nadu BJP leader K Annamalai on Tuesday met Union Home Minister Amit Shah here at his residence amid speculation that he may quit the party and float a new political outfit in the state.
According to sources, Annamalai’s meeting with Shah lasted for about 30 minutes. But it was not immediately known what transpired between them at the meeting.He left Shah’s residence after the meeting without speaking to media.
Several media reports claimed that Annamalai also met BJP president Nitin Nabin and party national general secretary B L Santhosh, and tendered his resignation from the party, but there was no official confirmation on this.
“He has not yet resigned,” a source in the party said. Annamalai is reported to have been sulking in the party since he was replaced with Nainar Nagenthran as Tamil Nadu BJP president and the electoral pact with the AIADMK was revived ahead of the 2026 assembly elections in the state. (PTI)
