Jayalalithaa; real player behind DMK's loss?
DMK, a prominent alliance in Congress-led United Progressive Alliance (UPA), met with a great blow by losing the telecom porfolio. Congress handed it to Human Resource Development Minister Kapil Sibal after A Raja's resignation in connection with the 2G spectrum scam.

DMK's
loss
can
be
regarded
as
a
great
win
for
Jayalalithaa.

Congress
to

When
Union
Minister
P

requested

chief

for
resignation
of
Raja,
Tamil

Chief
Minister
threatened
that
all

would
quit
the
central
government.
But when Jayalalithaa's "unconditional" support offer came for UPA, DMK forced to rethink about Raja. Meanwhile, BJP focused more on Prime Minister Manmohan Sigh and Sonia Gandhi for their silence in 2G scam. Hence, it became a prestige issue for Congress.
Later, Chidambaram periled DMK by saying the alliance during the Assembly elections. This time DMK understood that sacking Raja would be better than facing Congress-AIADMK alliance during Assembly elections.
