CM Stalin was speaking with the media during his roadshow on his home turf of Kulathur in Chennai South Lok Sabha seat.
The CM said that there was a wave for the INDIA bloc led by the DMK in Tamil Nadu and added that the front would improve its results by winning all the seats in the state.
The Chief Minister said that PM Narendra Modi “was fearing an adverse result” in the 2024 Lok Sabha polls and added that this was the main reason for him to target opposition-ruled states and Chief Ministers. He was referring to the arrest of Arvind Kejriwal and Hemant Soren.
