Union Minister of State for Social Justice and Empowerment Ramdas Athawale on Friday (April 10, 2026) said the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) would form a “coalition government” in Tamil Nadu after the Assembly election.
Responding to queries on whether the AIADMK would form the government on its own or as part of an alliance, he said that though the party was strong, the government would be led by the NDA, similar to the coalition at the Centre.
