Vaiko to observe token fast at Tenkasi
Special Correspondent
Vaiko
CHENNAI: Marumalarchi Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam general secretary Vaiko will observe a token fast at Tenkasi on August 26 (Sunday) for communal amity and peace in the town, which had witnessed clashes resulting in the death of six persons. In a statement here on Thursday, Mr. Vaiko said it was unfortunate that two communities, who had been living in peace for several decades, indulged in bloody quarrel. These incidents could not be ignored and should be nipped in the bud.
In such clashes people belonging to both the groups became victims and the sufferers were the families of the deceased. The incidents would also create ill-will and hatred between the two communities, which in turn would affect communal harmony in the area.
Mr. Vaiko appealed to both the communities to put behind these incidents and adopt Annadurai’s dictum of forget and forgive. The fast would be observed from 9 am to 5 pm in Tenkasi, he added.
