Seven Union ministers belonging to the Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam, including T R Baalu and A Raja, will be meeting Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M Karunanidhi at 8 pm in Chennai today to submit their resignation from the Lok Sabha. This is part of the DMK’s tactic to force the central government to act decisively vis a vis the Sri Lankan Tamils. This is a major political challenge to the prime minister and is bound to embroil the United Progressive Alliance government in a serious crisis. That the DMK has chosen Friday 8 pm in Chennai to flex its muscles means that its 16 Lok Sabha and three Rajya Sabha MPs will not be attending to either their ministerial office or Parliament from Monday. The DMK is determined to create further trouble for the UPA government by raising the heat over the Sri Lankan Tamils issue. As part of this strategy, Monday onwards the seven ministers will not be a part of the treasury benches. This decision is bound to put Congress ministers like P Chidambaram and Mani Shankar Aiyar, also from Tamil Nadu, in an embarrassing position. Given the sentiments involved, can they ignore the highly emotive issue? The question uppermost on the minds of political observers is, given this major crisis facing his government, will the prime minister undertake his China visit scheduled for next week? |
When Vajpayee Govt was nearing its end the DMK walk out of the ministry and the alliance, because they felt that BJP will lose power. Now, they are doing it again at the fag end of MMS govt term,because they are again sensing that congress and UPA wont be returned to power after the next general election. And this sudden love for Tamils is an insult to those Tamils. |
While Mk speaks for Tamils in Sri Lanka, why he has not cared for Indians in India Why didnt your ministers resign for price rise? Why didnt your ministers resign for petrol rise? Why didnt your ministers resign for raise of terrorism in India? Many Indians died in terror act. When the rate per barrel of petrol has come down to $71 from $146, this UPA Govt has not decreased the price of petrol? Have you or your party highlighted on this? First, why dont you try to save Tamils in Tamil Nadu by giving 24 hours uninterrupted electricity? First think of Indians in India, Tamilians in Tamil Nadu. Then you can cry for Tamils in Sri Lanka. |
We were deprived for 5000 years , now is not enough reason that srilanka should provide 69% reservation to tamilians ? We will bring down your govt in case indian govt does not attack srilanka and force them to change constitution and provide 69% reservation Just imagine if people working in LTTE gets a govt job will they like living in forests ,etc I also demand a “tamil ratna” award to be given to all LTTE supporter. |
