According to the BJP official, DMDK has been allotted 14 seats, the BJP and PMK eight each, the MDMK seven and one each for two minor parties.
Heaving a sigh of relief, a BJP official said perhaps this is the first time in state a strong alliance against AIADMK and DMK has been formed with a national party.
The change of scene was also reflected at the ground level with Vijayakant at an election rally said: "Modi should become the prime minister if India is to become a super power."
He also confirmed that his party is part of the BJP led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) adding that the national party would announce the list of candidates.
