Party urges Chief Secy. to take up issue with authorities
The DMK on Thursday sought the intervention of the Chief Secretary to take steps to restore the names of leaders like Dravidar Kazhagam founder Periyar E.V. Ramasamy to roads in Chennai, whose names “have been changed recently”. In a memorandum to Chief Secretary Rajiv Ranjan, DMK organisation secretary R. Bharathi, party MP P. Wilson and senior advocate N.R. Elango urged him to take up the issue with the appropriate authorities, including the Centre. They complained that while the name of the Poonamallee High Road, named after Periyar, had been changed to Grand Western Trunk Road, roads bearing the names of former Chief Ministers C.N. Annadurai and K. Kamaraj had also been changed.
