DMK threatens to intensify protest Updated: Updated: Share Article AAA Voices of dissent: DMK functionaries leading a protest in the city on Tuesday condemning the arrest of the party workers during makkal grama sabai meetings.
Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam will intensify its protest in Coimbatore if the State Government and Coimbatore police deny permission for holding ‘makkal grama sabai’ meetings, party’s east urban unit in-charge and Singanallur MLA N. Karthik said here on Tuesday while leading a protest condemning the police action against party workers. He alleged that the police at the behest of Municipal Administration Minister S.P. Velumani was denying permission to the DMK to even tie party flags to hold the meetings. Tuesday’s protest was only the first. If the police continued with this line of action, the DMK would not only intensify its protest but also rope in allies to register its protest, he said.
