AIADMK walks out of Tamil Nadu Assembly in Chennai, alleges suppression of voices

Chennai, April 16, 2025 (ANI): AIADMK MLAs walked out of Tamil Nadu assembly after the proceedings began as they alleged that Speaker didn't allow them to raise issues regarding DMK Ministers on April 16. They raised slogans they raised of “Where is democracy? No permission to raise people's issue”. “Only elections will decide the strength of alliance. Votes without split should defeat the enemy. We made efforts to coordinate with parties with same thoughts, against DMK. First, BJP came into our alliance. Very soon, many other parties would come into our AIADMK - BJP alliance,” said Edappadi K. Palaniswami. “For 16 years, DMK was part of the Central Government. The problem wouldn't have arisen if then DMK would have brought State Autonomy. They didn't bring this when they were in the government, but to blame others, the CM made an announcement regarding State Autonomy,” he added.
