We will face the elections together.”Stalin also praised Rahul Gandhi, saying their bond transcended politics. “Rahul sees me like his brother. We share a lot apart from politics,” he added.Responding to his remarks, TNCC chief K Selvaperunthagai said CM has expressed his opinion on the issue, but a decision would be taken jointly by Rahul Gandhi and Stalin.
