When Amma announced polls, it was the DMK which got the stay,” he said, mocking the rival for calling out every party into the alliance.The arch-rival encouraged family politics, the CM alleged, pointing to the members of the DMK first family becoming MPs and ministers. “After Stalin, (his son) Udayanidhi will emerge,” Palaniswami said.
