Thirumavalavan denies cracks in DMK ties

After causing a flutter in the DMK-VCK ties by raking the issue of sharing power, Viduthalai Chiruthaigal Katchi founder and Chidambaram MP Thol. Thirumavalavan, on Monday met Chief Minister and DMK president M. K. Stalin at Anna Arivalayam. He reportedly spoke privately for a few minutes and invited the DMK for the liquor prohibition rally to be held on Oct. 2 in Kallakurichi.

Mr. Thirumavalavan said the DMK organizing secretary, R.S. Bharathi, and spokesperson, T.K.S. Elangovan, would participate in the rally.

Mr. Thirumavalavan told journalists there were no issues between DMK and VCK.

“There are no cracks in the DMK-VCK ties,” he said, adding that the liquor prohibition rally would pass resolutions to urge the State government to reduce the ‘revenue targets’ for Tasmac liquor outlets and call for a national policy for the prohibition of liquor.
