DMDK members evicted from Tamil Nadu assembly

The Opposition DMDK members were evicted en masse from the Tamil Nadu Assembly after an exchange of words with former ally, the ruling AIADMK.

The problem started when C Vijayabhaskar (AIADMK) made some pointed remarks against DMDK founder and Opposition Leader Vijayakanth.

Soon DMDK members were on their feet protesting against the remark and did not heed Speaker D Jayakumar's pleas asking them to resume their seats.

The Speaker subsequently ordered their enmasse eviction.
