The DMK today said no politics was involved in Prime Minister Narendra Modi meeting the party's ailing patriarch M Karunandihi, and said the former had invited the nonagenarian leader to Delhi for treatment.


Modi, during his day-long visit to Chennai on Monday, had called on Karunanidhi in an unscheduled visit, setting off speculation of a political realignment.


DMK working president and Karunanidhi's son, M K Stalin said he has already clarified that Modi came to meet Karunanidhi with no "political intentions."


Leading a protest in Madurai against the Modi government's note ban implemented last year, Stalin said the meeting between the two leaders on November 6 in Chennai was a "humanitarian" one.  -- PTI
