DMK praises Cong-led UPA for developmental projects

CHENNAI: Close on the heels of snapping its nine-year association with Congress-led UPA on Sri Lankan Tamils issue, DMK today commended the Centre for introducing developmental projects.

A meeting of the DMK Executive chaired by party chief M Karunanidhi lauded the Manmohan Singh government for ushering in various developmental projects in its near decade-long rule.

"This Executive thanks Kalaignar (Karunanidhi) for getting projects that put Tamil Nadu on the path of development and the UPA for granting them," a resolution adopted by the key decision-making body of DMK here said.

Titled "Benefits to Tamil Nadu in UPA rule," the resolution recalled the various projects to Tamil Nadu, including the Centre granting classical status language to Tamil, something often claimed by DMK as a major achievement.

The Executive said the Centre had granted projects in various sectors including roads, shipping, industries, drinking water, IT and telecom, aviation and railways, all running into thousands of crores of rupees.

"Of these great projects, the Sethusamudram Shipping Canal Project and the elevated corridor project connecting Maduravoyal and Chennai Port have remained stalled due to AIADMK government's non-cooperation. The Executive strongly condemns it," it said.

DMK with 18 Lok Sabha members had walked out of UPA last week, accusing Centre of allowing "watering down" of the US resolution against Sri Lanka at the UNHRC and not considering its suggestions on the matter.

In another resolution, DMK demanded that India should boycott the Commonwealth Heads of Government meeting scheduled to be held in Colombo in November.

"While the Commonwealth Secretariat should not convene the meeting in Colombo, if it happens, India should boycott the meeting in order to reflect the sentiments of Tamils the world over and to keep up the democratic spirits," the DMK Executive Meeting said.
