Chennai/Hyderabad, Aug 8 (Maxim News):Defending the DMK’s decision to boycott the MPs’ consultation meeting on delimitation convened by the TVK government, party Deputy General Secretary, Kanimozhi Karunanidhi, on Saturday questioned Chief Minister C. Joseph Vijay’s priorities and challenged him to take concrete action against Karnataka’s proposed Mekedatu dam.
Kanimozhi asked whether CM Vijay was prepared to send representatives of the Tamil Nadu government along with MPs from the State to meet the Union Jal Shakti Minister and personally submit the Assembly resolution opposing the Mekedatu project.
She argued that there was no immediate basis for the TVK government to convene a meeting on delimitation, pointing out that the Union government had neither announced plans to introduce a Delimitation Bill during the current Parliament session nor communicated any proposal to amend the existing law. “When there is nothing before us, what is there to discuss?” she asked, explaining the DMK’s decision to stay away from the meeting.
