Madurai: Reacting to MDMK's decision of not contesting Tamil Nadu Assembly polls, Union Minister and DMK leader M K Alagiri on Sunday said the party's leader Vaiko had "in the last minute" understood the "egoistic nature" of AIADMK chief Jayalalithaa.
"It is not MDMK which has boycotted the elections, but AIADMK which has boycotted MDMK," Alagiri, who is Chief Minister M Karunanidhi's elder son and DMK's Organising Secretary (South Zone) told reporters here.
He said, "MDMK leader Vaiko has understood the egoistic and high-handed nature of AIADMK chief Jayalalithaa in the last minute."
Alagiri claimed that the DMK's election manifesto released on Saturday, had been welcomed by people and said the party-led alliance would win all the seats.
People were satisfied with DMK fulfilling its earlier promises listed in its 2006 election manifesto, he said, adding, AIADMK would "vanish" after the polls.
MDMK on Sunday decided against contesting the April 13 Assembly elections, saying it was piqued by the "consistent ill-treatment" and "arrogant stand" of AIADMK during the seat-sharing talks.
