Former DMK MP KP Ramalingam is set to join the ranks of BJP.
This development gains importance as it is in tandem with senior BJP leader and Union Home Minister Amit Shah's visit to Tamil Nadu ahead of 2021 TN assembly elections.
Ramalingam was removed from DMK for speaking against the interests of party on April.
DMK was displeased with his statement lauding ruling AIADMK and BJP governments' efforts to curb coronavirus and also rejected the idea of all-party meet with 144 restrictive orders in place.
He is set to visit BJP's headquarters 'Kamalalayam' and join the party at the presence of TN BJP's Incharge CT Ravi and his deputy Sudhakar Reddy.
