K Annamalai Likely To Quit BJP, Launch Own Party

K Annamalai, the former Tamil Nadu BJP chief, claims there is no opportunity or future for him in the party and is likely to quit after a meeting with party chief Nitin Nabin later today.

The development comes nearly a month after the Tamil Nadu polls, where the BJP won just one seat in the 234-member House.

“Please wait. We will sit down and talk in two days,” Annamalai told a posse of reporters as he arrived at Chennai airport to catch a flight to Delhi.

Curiously, the vehicle in which he arrived at the airport did not display a BJP flag.
