Chennai, Mar 14 (PTI) The DMK-led SPA in Tamil Nadu will hold a statewide protest on March 15 criticising the ruling NDA government over shortage of commercial LPG cylinders across the country.
Due to the NDA government’s wrong policy and the lack of precautionary measures, there is currently a shortage of domestic and commercial gas cylinders across the country, causing great hardship to people, the Secular Progressive Alliance alleged in a statement here.
Observing that Tamil Nadu is rich in industrial resources and where many MSME enterprises face severe impact due to the issue, it said Chief Minister M K Stalin has urged the Prime Minister Narendra Modi to take immediate action and rectify the situation.
“However, the NDA government has not taken proper steps to allay the fears among the people and normalise the situation,” it said.
In addition, the Centre has stopped releasing of funds for education and it continues to refuse permission for any development projects like the providing metro rail in Coimbatore and Madurai.
A protest will be held on behalf of the SPA on March 15 at 10.30 am in all the districts across Tamil Nadu, the statement added.
SPA constituents include Congress, Left parties and the VCK.
