No chance for DMK to revive Legislative Council: Jayalalithaa

The Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK) would not return to power in Tamil Nadu again and would not get another opportunity to seek to revive the Legislative Council, Chief Minister Jayalalithaa said in the Assembly on Tuesday.

Replying to a debate on a resolution rescinding an earlier decision of the Assembly calling for the revival of the Upper House of the State legislature, Ms. Jayalalithaa said, “As far as I know, the DMK is the only party which wants to revive the Council. As they are unlikely to return to power, there is no chance that there will be another attempt to bring back the Council.”

“The sun has set and this sun will not rise again,” she said, in a reference to the ‘Rising Sun', the DMK's election symbol.
