Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday (19 March) said that the entire country is watching the huge public support and love that Tamil Nadu is showering upon the BJP.

“Yesterday, I was amongst the people during the roadshow in Coimbatore and the support and blessings that NDA and Modi have received has made the DMK lose its sleep,” he said.

He said that people are enthusiastic about the BJP, and this has been troubling the INDI Alliance.

Addressing a public rally in Tamil Nadu's Salem, PM Modi said that the NDA has gotten new energy following a seat-sharing deal with the Pattali Makkal Katchi (PMK) in Tamil Nadu for the upcoming Lok Sabha Elections. 

The BJP on Tuesday announced a seat-sharing deal with the Dr S Ramadoss-headed Pattali Makkal Katchi (PMK) in Tamil Nadu for the April 19 Lok Sabha polls, allotting 10 seats to the regional party.

The state is set to undergo polls in the first of the seven phases of the Lok Sabha elections on 19 April.

"Tamil Nadu has decided that on 19 April, every vote will go to BJP, to NDA. Tamil Nadu has decided that 'Abki Baar, 400 Paar'. For a developed India, we need '400 Paar'. For a developed Tamil Nadu, we need '400 Paar'. For a self-reliant India, we need '400 Paar'," PM Modi said.
