Asked about the chances of DMDK being a part of the UPA, Vasan said: "It will be an immense pleasure to have a good party in our alliance." He was speaking to reporters at TNCC headquarters on Saturday. The two leaders enjoy good camaraderie, with Vijayakanth visiting Vasan's father, G K Moopanar's memorial every year. The two leaders had met recently on Moopanar's death anniversary with hundreds of supporters from both sides, triggering speculation of a possible political equation.
On DMK leader M Karunanidhi's letter to political parties, including the Congress and the BJP, seeking support for his party's candidate for the Yercaud bypoll, Vasan said the AICC high command would decide on the issue and an announcement would be made officially by TNCC president B S Gnanadesikan soon. "My stand is that of my party," the Congress leader said
