Puducherry: The ruling Congress-led Secular Democratic Alliance (SDA) in Puducherry today started its four-day long agitation demanding recall of Lt Governor Kiran Bedi for allegedly impeding developmental plans and welfare measures of the elected government.
Chief Minister V Narayanasamy, MP V Vaithilingam, Congress MLA T Jayamoorthy, leaders of the CPI, CPI(M) and VCK also participated in the protest.
Security forces were deployed outside the Raj Nivas in Puducherry ahead of the four-day protest called by Secular Democratic Alliance.
‘No agitation is permitted within 500 metres radius of Raj Nivas,’ informed the police.
The Narayanasamy-led government has been at loggerheads with the Lieutenant Governor on the implementation of several welfare measures proposed by them.
