VELLORE: CPI state secretary M Veerapandian said talks are under way regarding seat sharing and the party will ask for more seats within the DMK-led alliance. He was speaking at the second state conference of the Tamil Nadu Oppressed People’s Right to Life Movement held in Virupatchipuram on Monday. However, we have the moral right to ask for more seats and we will,” Veerapandian said. He added that the party’s state committee will meet and discuss seat-sharing prospects soon. Veerapandian, in a separate statement, urged Chief Minister M K Stalin to directly intervene and fulfil the long-pending demands of Tasmac employees, including regularisation of service, time-scale pay and pension benefits.
