PMK president Anbumani Ramadoss on Sunday said the party will organise a meeting of its district presidents and secretaries on December 7 in Chennai in a move towards starting preparations for the upcoming Lok Sabha elections.
The meeting will be held in the presence of the party founder S. Ramadoss, former president G.K Mani and other senior leaders in the party.
A press statement said the party is likely to discuss the future course of action regarding the 10.5% reservations for Vanniyars within Most Backward Class category, demand for socio-economic caste census, a long-time demand of the party. The party has criticised the ruling DMK for not doing enough to collate the required data that could justify implementation of the 10.5% reservations after Supreme Court upheld the Madras High Court’s judgement which struck down law guaranteeing the Vanniyar reservations passed by the previous AIADMK government.
