The Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam on Monday Oct 28,2013 slapped a legal
notice on Tamil Nadu Chief Minister Jayalalithaa and others, charging
her government with misusing official position by propagating her
party’s symbol “two leaves” on recently launched small buses, besides
complaining to Election Commission.
The DMK legal
wing has served the notices to State’s Transport Minister Senthil
Balaji, Chief Secretary Sheela Balaakrishnan and Managing Director of
Metropolitan Transport Corporation among others.
The
DMK has also petitioned the Election Commission to derecognise AIADMK
for violating model code of conduct in the Yercaud Assemby bypoll.
The complaint stated that AIADMK with calculative and
scientific motive has painted its “two leaves” symbol on 50 small buses
which was launched on October 23 and also on some 610 buses.
The action amounted to misuse and abusing the official position as public servant and also a criminal misconduct, it charged.
The complaint besides urging Tamil Nadu Chief Minister J Jayalalithaa to remove the advertisements has also appealed to CAG to look into the issue.
