CHENNAI: The Tamil Nadu BJP on Wednesday dismissed the media reports speculating a change in the state's party leadership, saying the rumours were part of a "political conspiracy".
Addressing reporters here, party spokesperson Narayanan Tirupathy said, "Nainar Nagendran is our state president and is doing a wonderful job. He has been touring throughout Tamil Nadu to develop the party as well as the NDA under the AIADMK."
Senior leader Tamilisai Soundararajan also said that they are "very happy working under Nagendran".
"He is doing a fantastic job and his yatra is very, very successful," she told reporters on the sidelines of an event organised by TN BJP SC Morcha in the city.
The saffron party leaders accused DMK and its allies of "spreading rumours" and engaging in a "conspiracy" to create an "unhealthy atmosphere".
According to party sources, TN BJP chief Nagendran being called to New Delhi on Tuesday has triggered speculations regarding a leadership change in the party's state unit.
"It is a conspiracy, and such rumours are not politically healthy. DMK and its allies should be condemned strongly for creating an unhealthy atmosphere and unhealthy politics," Narayanan added.
He expressed confidence that Nagendran will "take NDA to a big victory in the 2026 assembly elections".
"The entire party and the cadre stand with Nagendran at this hour," Tirupathy added.
