Take up civic issues for discussion: AIADMK to Puducherry speaker

Opposition AIADMK today urged the Puducherry assembly speaker to ensure that public issues are taken up during the budget session commencing tomorrow.

AIADMK legislature wing leader A Anbalagan told reporters at the end of a meeting of the party MLAs that he had handed over a letter to the speaker V Vaithilingam seeking adjournment of all the scheduled businesses of the House.

The letter said, the speaker should instead discuss various public issues and remove the hurdles in the territorial administration because of the face-off between Lt Governor Kiran Bedi and Chief Minister V Narayanasamy.

The AIADMK leader alleged that free rice was not regularly available to card holders through ration shops because of difference of opinion between Bedi and Narayanasamy over the modalities of operating the scheme.

The party has four legislators, including Anbalagan, in the opposition. The three others are A Baskar, K A U Asana and Vayyapuri Manikandan.
