Shun confrontation with Centre: AIADMK tells Pondy govt

The AIADMK in Puducherry Sunday called on the Narayanasamy led Congress government not to indulge any longer in confrontation with the NDA government at the Centre.

Addressing reporters here, the leader of the legislature wing of AIADMK, A Anbalagan said, "now that the BJP-led NDA has romped home for second successive term to form the government under leadership of Narendra Modi at the Centre, the Puducherry government should concentrate on development of Union Territory."
Referring to the tussle between Narayanasamy and Lt Governor Kiran Bedi, he said, "All these three years the Congress government had locked horns with the Lt Governor and also with the Centre which did not help Puducherry in any manner."
The territorial government should focus on the requirements of the Union Territory without any longer encouraging confrontation."
