During today's meet, condolence was observed for Kaduvetti Guru who passed away recently. 

Addressing the media, Anbumani Ramadoss said, "Ahead of Parliament elections, we have decided to ally with like-minded parties. Keeping in mind the welfare of the people and the party, we will soon arrive at a decision". 



He also urged people to refrain from spreading and believing fake news pedelled against their party. 

Alleging the Centre for hindering the rights of the State government, he cited the on-going issues including Mullai-Periyar dam, Cauvery water sharing, and relief fund allocation which have been delayed due to the Centre. 

"Perhaps, both Congress and BJP parties had betrayed Tamils during Sri Lankan Tamil massacre and fishermen issue" he pointed. 

"Initially, Rs. 3523 crore was announced towards Avinashi-Athikadavu scheme, whereas now, it has shrinked to Rs.1532 crore. The government should complete the project as early as possible to fulfill the long pending demand of people of Kongu region" he added. 

 

"During the upcoming Tamil Nadu Assembly meet in 2019, a GO should be passed announcing Cauvery delta region as special agricultural zone. PMK will extend support to the farmers who are protesting for this issue", Anbumani affirmed. 

As Congress, left wing and DMK have joined hands as one team; AIADMK and BJP are expected to team up as another team, the reporters questioned on the stance of PMK in terms of coalition, the youth wing President hinted "Just wait and watch".
