AIADMK workers staged a protest here Thursday against the recent comments made by Lt Governor Kiran Bedi on the Tamil Nadu government and the people in the context of the water scarcity in Chennai.
Leader of the legislature wing of AIADMK A Anbalagan, who led the demonstration, urged the Centre to recall Bedi from Puducherry as her remarks were "highly derogatory and demeaning."
Agitators raised slogans against Bedi for her "unjustified and unwarranted comments against Tamil Nadu government and the people of the State."
Hitting out at the Lt Governor over her remarks, the AIADMK leader said, "Bedi has no locus standi to make any comments on the politicians, bureaucracy and the people of Tamil Nadu in the context of the water crisis' he said and asked Bedi to hold her tongue."
