DMK also termed Modi’s failure as “regrettable” saying, if Chief Minister O Panneeselvam had taken an all party delegation to meet him, the feelings of the people of the state could have been expressed better. But Modi also expressed his support to the state government’s decision, MK Stalin, DMK working president and opposition leader, said in a statement. Modi has appreciated the cultural significance of Jallikattu but has termed the matter as “subjudice”, he said.“AG said clearly that ordinance can be passed by the state Govt but till now TN CM is silent,” said MK Stalin. He added, “As the leader of opposition, I also asked for Assembly Session but no answer; so tomorrow we will be holding rail roko protest,” he added.After Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s failure to push for an ordinance to allow Jallikattu, the Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam were more agitated and announed a statewide “rail roko agitation” where they will create a massive blockade around the state’s railway stations during their protest.
