Congress Whip Warns Allies on Internal Affairs

Congress Whip Warns Allies on Internal Affairs

Manickam Tagore, a Congress leader, told other political parties in their alliance not to interfere in Congress's internal matters.

He was upset because some of these parties, like VCK, MDMK, CPI(M), and CPI, asked Congress leader Rahul Gandhi to punish Praveen Chakravarty.

Chakravarty had said that Tamil Nadu has a lot of debt, which made the DMK government and its allies unhappy.

Tagore said allies should not tell Congress how to run its party and should follow coalition rules.

He also asked the allies to keep their disagreements private and not talk about them in public.
