 "Will comment after results are declared: Jayalalithaa")
Tamil Nadu Chief Minister and AIADMK general secretary J. Jayalalithaa Wednesday reiterated her earlier stance that she would comment about the elections only after the results are out.
In a brief interaction with reporters here, Jayalalithaa declined to be drawn into any discussion on supporting the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) if need be.
"Let us wait for the results to be declared. Then I will give my comments," she said.
Stressing that she cannot make any remarks at this juncture, Jayalalithaa said like many others she was also awaiting the election results.
Several exit polls have predicted the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) would emerge the winner at the centre while in Tamil Nadu the AIADMK would bag the largest number of Lok Sabha seats.
