​Catch-22 for AIADMK on trust vote against NDA

CHENNAI: The no-confidence movement, moved through the TDP and YSR Congress, towards the NDA government shall be a clean display for the BJP which enjoys a majority on its own. But for the ruling AIADMK in Tamil Nadu, that could be forced to abstain or vote in favour of the BJP, its choice may just turn out difficult for its possibilities again house.
With Tamil Nadu’s Cauvery water sharing dispute with Karnataka heating up, a confidence vote in favour of the BJP-led government and even abstinence, which would mean covert enhance, may well be tough ammunition in the arms of the DMKled opposition in addition to arch rival AMMK, led through T T V Dhinakaran.



“The issue (no-confidence) is not such a trouble for us at the moment. We are fighting for our justifiable share of Cauvery water. As lengthy as we stay elevating the problem in Parliament, there is not any room for other companies,” said a senior AIADMK MP, not prepared to be named.

While there was no internal deliberation or any meeting scheduled yet to discuss the birthday celebration’s transfer for the agree with vote, senior birthday celebration leaders say the AIADMK would possibly at best abstain from balloting, an instruction for which is likely to be given to birthday celebration MPs after the date for the agree with vote is fastened.

“That shall be a futile exercise for the AIADMK,” pointed out analyst and senior journalist Tharasu Shyam. “As the second one largest opposition birthday celebration in Parliament after the Congress, the AIADMK, with 49 MPs, gets a good time slot to speak on the no-confidence movement. The birthday celebration should use this chance for a quid professional quo - ‘if you give us Cauvery Management Board, we will be able to give you enhance’. That would carry the AIADMK’s inventory in Tamil Nadu,” he said.


But the BJP’s political compulsions are inclined towards fulfilling Karnataka, which is scheduled to go to the polls soon. A dedication to the Edappadi Okay Palaniswami-O Panneerselvam dispensation appears remote. “This could have been a chance for us to turn our resentment on the Cauvery issue. The CM, then again, is in a catch-22 state of affairs. If we abstain from balloting, we will be able to be matter to grievance in TN. If we vote towards the NDA government, we're doomed too,” said an OPS loyalist, searching for anonymity.


The DMK and other opposition leaders were pressuring AIADMK MPs to resign on the Cauvery issue. On Sunday, CPM state secretary Okay Balakrishnan said AIADMK MPs should vote towards the BJP-led government.


“Otherwise, it'll be betrayal of the folks of Tamil Nadu,” he said.


Meanwhile, the coming week may just see a lot of motion. The finance invoice is slated to be handed on Thursday in the TN assembly and there is communicate of a cabinet reshuffle. There is also the upcoming verdict in the MLAs disqualification case with senior AIADMK leaders hoping that the court docket would possibly in spite of everything ask the assembly speaker to rethink his choice to expel the 18 MLAs.
