OPS wants DMK MLA’s remarks expunged
The Hindu
Focus on promises, he urges Stalin
Ten days after DMK legislator and Kongunadu Makkal Desia Katchi’s E.R. Eswaran made a statement in the Assembly over the use of Jai Hind, AIADMK coordinator O. Panneerselvam on Sunday expressed regret over the incident and urged Chief Minister M.K. Stalin to take steps to expunge the remarks from the House records. In a five-page statement, Mr. Panneerselvam urged the Chief Minister to focus on promises made in the DMK’s election manifesto on reducing fuel prices, dropping gold and educational loans, besides securing an exemption for Tamil Nadu from the ambit of NEET for medical admissions and other people-related issues. He also took a dig at the DMK government by referring to Mr. Stalin’s statement on July 19, 2019, in the Assembly that when the latter’s party came to power, they would not only do what was promised, but also things that were not. “The usage of the term ‘Union government’ and the absence of Jai Hind are probably among those that were not promised,” he said.More Related News
