Tamil Nadu BJP President K Annamalai travelled to London on 27 August 2024 to attend a three-month political renewal course at Oxford University and is scheduled to return to Chennai on 23 November.
Annamalai is expected to return to Oxford in February to complete the program and receive his certification. In the meantime, he plans to restructure several district-level offices within the Tamil Nadu BJP, emphasising infusing new energy into the party by providing opportunities to younger members. Sources suggest that with full backing from the party leadership, Annamalai is poised to implement these changes swiftly.
While Annamalai was in London, BJP National General Secretary Arun Singh appointed a coordination committee with senior leaders to oversee party activities and make key decisions. During his time abroad, Annamalai was involved in various political programs and events in London.
It has been confirmed that Annamalai will return to Tamil Nadu on 23 November and is scheduled to attend a BJP event in Coimbatore on 1 December. After that, he will continue his involvement in party activities.
As the 2026 Tamil Nadu Assembly elections approach, BJP sources indicate that Annamalai plans to engage with voters in rural areas, following a strategy similar to the ‘En Mann En Makkal’ campaign he conducted during the last Lok Sabha elections. He is expected to begin this outreach in January, visiting villages across the state to strengthen the BJP’s support base ahead of the elections.
