Jayalalithaa tells PM she wants NCTC put on hold | Tamil Nadu Chief Minister J Jayalalithaa has reportedly written a second letter to Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, asking him to put his government’s plans for establishing a National Counter Terrorism Centre (NCTC) on hold. She has reportedly
sought a separate meeting of all the chief ministers to discuss the counter-terrorism
body and the apprehensions raised by the state governments. "It is indeed unfortunate
that, without taking into consideration the views and sentiments of various State
Chief Ministers, the constitution of the NCTC is sought to be steamrolled into
existence. At this juncture, I request that the formation of the NCTC may first
be ordered to be held in abeyance and a separate meeting of Chief Ministers may
be convened only to discuss this matter. The views of various Chief Ministers
will have to be given due consideration and a purposeful discussion on counter
terrorism should be made possible. I request an early reply in this matter," she
wrote. |
