Tamil Nadu people must teach a fitting lesson to AIADMK for its support to SIR, says CPI(M)

Chennai, Nov 10 (PTI) CPI(M) State Secretary P Shanmugam on Monday lashed out at the AIADMK for its support to the SIR exercise and urged the people to teach it a fitting lesson.

A day ahead of the protest to be staged by the DMK-led Secular Democratic Progressive Alliance against the SIR, the Marxist party leader said it was not surprising that the AIADMK, which supported the "CAA-NRC that takes away citizenship," was now backing the SIR of electoral rolls.

An ally of Tamil Nadu's ruling DMK, the Communist party in a statement alleged that the AIADMK, which took a flawed stand on issues such as the CAA-NRC, continues to take a flawed stance on all key issues and hence, the people of Tamil Nadu must teach them a fitting lesson.

Shanmugam urged the people to take part in large numbers in protests to be staged on November 11 against the SIR. PTI VGN VGN ROH
