AMMK General Secretary TTV Dhinakaran has said that, when looking at certain events, it raises the suspicion that the Congress party is the one running the ruling TVK government.
TTV Dhinakaran, on his X page, said,
"In the absence of the Central government bringing any bill in Parliament regarding constituency delimitation, the government resolution passed today in the Tamil Nadu Legislative Assembly against it is unnecessary!
Chief Minister Joseph Vijay has today introduced in the Legislative Assembly the government’s separate resolution on delimitation, which includes provisions such as the total number of members in the Lok Sabha remaining at 543 and the current proportional representation for the states continuing as it is.
The central government has not yet issued any official announcement regarding the delimitation bill. In order to hide Tamil Nadu’s current major issues such as Cauvery water, the Mekedatu dam, full crop loan waiver for farmers, irregularities in electricity charges, the widespread circulation of narcotic substances, and the breakdown of law and order, the TVK government has staged another drama in the Assembly in the form of a government special resolution, after already convening an MPs’ meeting on delimitation.
After senior Congress leader Rahul Gandhi came to Tamil Nadu and spoke about delimitation, an MPs’ meeting was held the very next week, and a government resolution was passed the week after that. Seeing these events unfold one after another in such haste, everyone has begun to wonder: is it the Congress party that is running the ruling TVK government?
Even after everyone accepted the 33 percent reservation for women, and after Union Home Minister Amit Shah clarified that no state, including Tamil Nadu, would be affected by delimitation, and that Tamil Nadu’s representation in Parliament would increase from 7.18 percent to 7.23 percent, the TVK government’s deliberate spread of the malicious propaganda among the people of Tamil Nadu that delimitation will harm Tamil Nadu is strongly condemnable.
Therefore, I urge the TVK government and Chief Minister Joseph Vijay to stop wasting time by bringing such unnecessary current issues into the Assembly, and instead give priority to Tamil Nadu’s most pressing problems, rather than diverting attention from the people’s issues that arise every day during the past three months of TVK rule and hiding its inability in the Cauvery water and Mekedatu dam issue,” he posted.
