The MDMK on Friday withdrew its support to the United Progressive Alliance (UPA) Government at the Centre, saying that the government has not fulfilled the promises made in the Common Minimum Programme (CMP). The decision was taken at the party's regional conference here today.
"The government has failed to implement any of the demands during the three years," Vaiko-led MDMK said.
The party said that it had placed 17 demands, including amending the Constitution for giving autonomy to states, linking of rivers, which the government did not implement.
When the MDMK had agreed for giving outside support to the UPA, it had four MPs, of whom L. Ganesan and Gingee Ramachandran split from it.
Now it has two Members-- C Krishnan and S Selvaraj.
