PONDICHERRY: A. Anbalagan, MLA and Secretary of the Pondicherry State Committee of the All-India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam has charged the Rangasamy-led Congress government here with adopting a "discriminatory" approach in developmental activities in the outlying regions constituting the Union Territory. Yanam, an enclave of Pondicherry in Andhra Pradesh, had just one Assembly constituency. But the investment of funds for various developmental works and also other schemes there was greater than what regions like Karaikal needed. As the support of the lone legislator from Yanam was crucial to the government the region was pampered by the Rangasamy-led government, Mr. Anbalagan alleged. Karaikal, which had six Assembly constituencies and played a crucial role in deciding the political destiny of any Ministry in the Union Territory had however been given a raw deal. Educated unemployed youth had been left in the cold in Karaikal. A number of local leaders and opinion-makers had been forced to form a forum to demand Union Territory status for Karaikal. The government was chiefly to blame for this.
