The party has called the trust vote in the Tamil Nadu assembly illegal.
The Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK) announced on Sunday that it will hold a hunger strike on February 22 in all district offices of the party in Tamil Nadu.
On the trust vote held in the state assembly on Saturday, DMK Working President MK Stalin said, "We're trying to meet President Pranab Mukherjee in Delhi on this regard. We have sought time to highlight the Assembly situation."
Stalin said he will participate in Tiruchi for the hunger strike. He held a special meeting with party MLAs at DMK headquarters earlier on Sunday, following which some members of the party met with Governor Ch Vidyasagar Rao.
After the meeting, DMK's Tiruchi Siva told the media, "Sans participation of Opposition in Assembly, the trust vote moved by CM was passed. It's illegal. We've submitted a memorandum on the issue to TN Governor. He has promised to look into the matter."
An FIR has been filed against DMK working president MK Stalin, his party MLAs, MPs and cadres for holding a protest at Marina beach against the alleged attack on him and his MLAs during the trust vote in the Assembly. Police said an FIR has been filed against them for unlawful assembly and violation of public order. "DMK staged the protest without obtaining prior permission as required under law", a senior police official told PTI
Besides Stalin, 63 MLAs, three MPs and several DMK cadres who participated in the protest have been named in the FIR, he said.
Stalin was detained on Saturday after he sat on a protest at Marina beach here against the alleged attack on him and his party MLAs during the trust vote. After alleging that he was manhandled in the Assembly by the marshals during the vote of confidence, which the Palaniswami government won with a comfortable margin of 122-11, Stalin sat on a protest at the Marina along with his MLAs.
Several DMK workers had blocked vehicular traffic and indulged in stone-pelting in different places in the state to protest the alleged attack on Stalin.
