BJP trying to sneak in through backdoor: DMK leader Durai Murugan

CHENNAI: Tamil Nadu Minister and senior DMK leader Durai Murugan on Wednesday questioned the BJP's central leadership and the Union government for nominating three MLAs to the Puducherry Assembly without consulting the Chief Minister. In a statement here, he said that the people of Puducherry are "sceptical of the BJP's sinister design to sneak through the backdoor to enjoy power in Puducherry" and urged the BJP and the Union government not to indulge in such acts and to work for the welfare of the people "instead of such petty political games". "The newly-elected Chief Minister of Puducherry, N. Rangasamy is admitted to hospital for Covid-19 treatment and this move of the central BJP and Central government without consulting the Chief Minister of their alliance will undermine the new government's efficiency and pull down the government," DuraiMurugan claimed. He called upon the Central government to reverse its decision on the nominated MLAs and "forgo its attempt to create an unsafe environment for the newly-elected government in the state". (IANS)
