DMK opposes AIADMK govt's attempt to appoint Raja as the head of Scouts & Guides

The opposition party DMK on Monday object to Tamil Nadu government's plans to appoint BJP's national executive member H Raja as the head of Scouts and Guides in the State.
 
"The news that chief minister Edappadi K. Palaniswamy and education minister Sengottaiyan are colluding to appoint Raja, one of the leaders of Tamil Nadu BJP had shocked the Scouts and Guides community as well as many the members of the civil society", DMK working president M K Stalin said.
 
Claiming that the governor is the chief patron and education minister being the subordinate, Stalin said: "this attempt by them to appoint H.Raja as the head of Scouts and Guides in Tamil Nadu, is clearly seen as an attempt to influence the gullible minds".
 
With the long pending election in the Scouts and Guides organization will be held on 16th September 2017 and the people who can vote in this election include chief educational officers of the district, district educational officers and teachers, Stalin alleged that Raja has evinced interest in taking part in the election for the top position in this organization
 
"It was the agenda of his (Raja) meet with Palaniswamy a few days back", the DMK leader claimed.
