Governor urged to cancel TNPSC appointments

He called the order issued by Edappadi K Palanisamy’s government a violation of High Court and Supreme Court orders. Accusing the government of trying to convert TNPSC into headquarters of AIADMK (Amma) faction, Stalin also wondered how the Governor had approved the appointment of the same people as TNPSC members despite the Court order. 

Recalling at length the observations made by the High Court in the case, the DMK working president urged the Governor to direct Chief Minister Palanisamy to appoint members to TNPSC in accordance with the HC order dated December 22, 2016.
