Jayalalithaa denies ambition to become Prime Minister

Chennai, Apr 15 (ANI): All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (AIADMK) chief J. Jayalalithaa ruled out her being in the race to become the Prime Minister.

"I don't have any personal ambition. All I want is that our country should prosper and take its rightful place as a global super power in the community of nations, internationally," said J Jayalalithaa on Tuesday.

Further, she also rubbished the rumours of AIADMK having post-poll alliance with any other party.

"The AIADMK is in alliance with the Left parties, the Pattali Makkal Katchi and the Marumalarchi Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam. So, there is no question of conducting any talks with any other party on a probable post-poll alliance," added Jayalalithaa.

A certain section of media reported that the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is trying a post-poll alliance with Jayalalithaa and her AIADMK.

From Tamil Nadu, 39 MPs are elected to the Lok Sabha.
