Coimbatore: Claiming that the new Tamil Nadu government formed after the Assembly polls would not last till the next Lok Sabha elections, Janata Party President Dr Subramanian Swamy today said allies of both the DMK and AIADMK would have switched loyalties by that time. 

Which ever alliance formed the government, its partners would withdraw support to form a new front at national level for the general elections, he told reporters here. 

Swamy hastened to add that he also foresaw early elections to the Lok Sabha, sometime between November and March 2012, as the results of the recent assembly elections in five states would have a "serious impact" on national politics. 

The votes polled in the April 13 Assembly elections in Tamil Nadu, Kerala, Puducherry, West Bengal and Assam will be counted on May 13. 

DMDK chief and actor Vijaykanth was likely to leave the alliance throwing open the situation for another mid-term elections, Swamy said. 

On 2G Spectrum scam case, he said the CBI, despite some hitches, was moving in the right direction under the strict monitoring
