Jayalalithaa to convene special Assembly session on Mullaperiyar dam issue

Chennai: Tamil Nadu Chief Minister Jayalalithaa will convene a special Assembly session on the Mullaperiyar dam issue on December 15.

Jayalalitha said the Assembly is likely to pass a resolution that Tamil Nadu will not give up their rights because of an "imaginary threat."

She also appealed for calm on the Tamil Nadu Kerala border, saying: "We have no quarrel with Keralites. Destroying their properties is not a solution."

The Chief Minister added that the solution ''lies in presenting sound technical and scientific data to the Supreme Court.''
