BJP still seems to view AIADMK as a potential Shiv Sena in the making—a party it could fracture at some stage and then acquire a large part of its vote base.

Standing up to America is usually not a personal risk for a leader in India. Any suggestions of foreign pressure unites India behind who they see as leading them in that fight.
