It is high time the DMK alliance is split. Better yet, it is high time the DMK is split. The DMK has outlived its purpose and is just not equipped to meaningfully carry on the struggle for economic development in the initial decades of the twenty-first century.
Maran is a progressive guy with forward-looking ideas. He deserves to be given expanded opportunities to focus in the areas where he has been successful. His initiatives in the field of IT are praiseworthy and he comes across as more interested in technological enterprises than in politics. Karunanidhis game in Tamil Nadu is downright cheap and dirty. He has had his days and richly deserves permanent retirement. It is for the younger generation to carry on the struggle for economic development. Maran represents that generation and his chances for success are much higher with Jayalalithaa and the AIDMK than with the narrow minded DMK leadership.
Tamil Nadu requires dynamic leadership with one-pointed effort in accelerating the technological and industrial development of the region. Together, Jayalalithaa, Maran and Valko are best suited to achieve it.
