Stalin warned such functionaries that they would be divested of the primary membership of the party if they did not resign immediately. He also directed the district secretaries and in-charge leaders to take necessary action. Stalin said, "We had a smooth talk with the alliance party regarding seat-sharing and position in the indirect polls. I am really disturbed and feel bad about what happened during the secret ballot."

He further said, "DMK candidates think that they have succeeded diligently and got the victory in secret ballot and went and sat on the position which was given to alliance party. But as party chief, I extend my condolences to the leaders of the coalition Party."
