DMK on Saturday decides to pull out of UPA Government but will provide only issue-based support to the UPA says party supremo M Karuanidhi at the DMK high-level meeting in Chennai.

“In the circumstances, we have to think whether to continue in the Union Government. So we have decided to relieve ourselves from the government,” Karunanidhi says.

“We are compelled to suspect that these are all the efforts by Congress to remove us from the UPA. Under these circumstances we have to think whether to continue in the government,” says Karunanidhi.

The Congress stand surprises us, says M Karuanidhi at the DMK high-level meeting. The Congress stand does not help for an amicable poll accord, the resolution says.
