DMK MLAs suspended from Tamil Nadu assembly for rest of budget session

CHENNAI: Speaker P Dhanapal on Tuesday suspended DMK MLAs from the Tamil Nadu legislative assembly for the rest of the session as their "conduct was not in consonance with the dignity of the House."

The action followed after the members had objected to certain remarks made by revenue minister R B Udhayakumar, leading to commotion in the assembly for a while.

When Udhayakumar was replying to a call attention motion moved by the Opposition on the situation arising out of poor monsoon in the last three years in the state.

While listing out the works undertaken by the government to tackle the water and fodder crisis against the backdrop of 20% deficit in rainfall last year, the minister said the previous AIADMK regime was indeed in the forefront in carrying out relief work, especially during disaster like tsunami, while the DMK showed little concern to the plight of the affected people and hid from taking up work.

The agitated DMK members were on their feet opposing the minister's remarks which indirectly hinted at their party chief, M Karunanidhi, prompting Dhanapal to summon the marshals to order their eviction en masse.

Later, Dhanapal said the members used objectionable words against him and persisted with their demands by standing near the Chair thus disrupting the business.

Speaking to mediapersons, DMK leader M K Stalin said the ruling party was making deliberate attempts to send out the DMK MLAs from the House, by provoking them to protest. "Neither the ruling party, nor the chief minister like our presence in the House. Hence, the Speaker evicts us perfectly. We strongly condemn the autocratic attitude of the Chair," he said.

The members of the MMK and the PT also walked out in support of the DMK.
