The DMK moved the Madras HC seeking a direction to the Tamil Nadu Assembly speaker to disqualify deputy chief minister O Panneerselvam and 10 other AIADMK MLAs Chennai: The DMK on Monday moved the Madras High Court seeking a direction to the Tamil Nadu Assembly speaker to disqualify deputy chief minister O Panneerselvam and 10 other AIADMK MLAs under the anti-defection law for voting against Chief Minister K Palaniswamy’s trust vote in February. In a petition, DMK whip R Sakkrapani submitted that a petition was given to Speaker P Dhanapal by six AIADMK MLAs on 20 March seeking disqualification of the 11 party legislators from the assembly membership. However, the speaker had not even issued notice to the 11 MLAs, he claimed, alleging that the “inaction of the speaker against the 11 MLAs is deliberate and malafide.” The six MLAs had sought action in accordance with provisions of the Tenth Schedule of the Constitution and The Tamil Nadu Legislative Assembly Rules 1986 for defying the party whip issued by the chief government whip S Rajendran, Sakkrapani submitted. The court is already hearing a petition by the DMK seeking a floor test for the Palaniswamy government in the wake of 18 MLAs loyal to Dhinakaran withdrawing their support to the chief minister on 22 August.
