Vaiko lauds Speaker's decision

MDMK general secretary Vaiko today hailed the decision of the Assembly Speaker P Dhanapal for conducting the confidence motion on the floor of the House as directed by the governor.

He alleged that the DMK was trying to fish in troubled waters following the factional feud in the AIADMK.

Vaiko also dismissed allegations of the DMK and other parties that the speaker's action was 'undemocratic.'

Speaking to reporters here, he said there was no room for secret ballot in the assembly as well as in Parliament.
