Senior BJP leader L.K.Advani Monday said his party-led NDA has altered the election battle scene in Tamil Nadu.
Addressing an election rally in this Tamil Nadu town around 140 km from Chennai, he said the people are seeing the BJP-led alliance as a major combatant in the state where traditionally it rivals were AIADMK or the DMK.
