KR Ramasamy, Congress legislative party leader in Tamil Nadu Assembly, wrote a letter to Governor C Vidyasagar Rao requesting him to direct Chief Minister EK Palaniswami to prove his majority in the Assembly, ANI reported. This follows DMK working president MK Stalin writing a similar letter to the Governor complaining of an ‘unprecedented constitutional crisis’ in the state and asking him to call a floor test without delay. While the Congress has 8 MLAs in the Assembly, the DMK has 89 legislators.
The Congress and DMK’s confidence to take part in a floor test stems from the banner of rebellion raised by 19 AIADMK MLAs loyal to TTV Dinakaran against the party. These 19 MLAs, currently housed in a resort near Puducherry, had met the Governor Tuesday demanding action against Palaniswami for alleged abuse of power, corruption and favouritism.
