Vedaranyam: The Manitha Neya Jananayaga Katchi general secretary and Nagapattinam MLA, Mr M. Tamimun Ansari appealed to the Tamil Nadu Chief Minister Edappadi K.Palaniswami not to allow the holding of IPL cricket march in Chennai on April 10.
In his letter to Mr. Palaniswami, a copy of which was made available to press here on Saturday, Mr .Ansari said since the people of Tamil Nadu “are very much annoyed over the Union government’s failure to form the CMB even after the Supreme court’s verdict,” considering the people’s mood, the IPL fixture should not be allowed in the state capital of Chennai.
“The entire Tamil Nadu, especially in the delta region, are very much sad; it is not fair to hold the IPL cricket at this juncture in the state and it is also not correct,” he said and recalled late Chief Minister J Jayalalithaa’s steps to prevent the Sri Lankan Cricket team from playing in Chennai in order to respect the sentiments of the Sri Lankan Tamils when they faced crisis.
