Puducherry Chief Minister N Rangasamy today said he would write to the Centre demanding that India boycott the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting (CHOGM) to be held in Colombo in November in protest against Lankan Tamils issue.
As soon as the Assembly met, opposition AIADMK legislator A Anbalagan wanted the territorial administration to write to the Centre, saying India skip the CHOGM meet.
He said Tamil Nadu Chief Minister J Jayalalithaa had already written to the Centre in this regard and the Puducherry government should also follow the example of the neighbouring state.
