TIL Desk/National/Chennai-Tamil Nadu Speaker P Dhanapal once again ruled out reconsidering the suspension of Dravida Munnetra Kazagham MLAs on Wednesday for allegedly creating a ruckus in the House, even as the suspended legislators continued to protest the action. Led by Opposition Leader MK Stalin and DMK Deputy Leader Durai Murugan, the suspended DMK MLAs staged a ‘model assembly’ session outside the House.
The Speaker, responding to pleas by DMK’s KN Nehru, who was not among those suspended since he was not present in the House on August 17, made it clear that there was no reviewing of his decision to suspend the agitating DMK legislators for a week.
“I was very patient that day and had to finally take action,” he said about his decision to suspend the MLAs, even as DMK found support from allies, Congress and IUML, who also sought revoking the suspension order.
