EPS team petitions Assembly secy to permit Udhayakumar in BAC

CHENNAI: Deputy whip of AIADMK S Ravi on Tuesday submitted a petition to Assembly secretary K Srinivasan to permit deputy opposition leader R B Udhayakumar in the business advisory committee(BAC).

The Arakkonam MLA handed over the letter on behalf of the party interim general secretary and opposition party leader Edappadi K Palaniswami, according to sources in the AIADMK party. Team EPS has made the move following the ongoing tussle with O Panneerselvam camp.

It may be recalled that ousted AIADMK leader, O Panneerselvam, had earlier submitted a petition to Speaker M Appavu not to make any chances in seating arrangement or inclusion in BAC without his concern.
