Chennai, Mar 12 (UNI) The Tamil Nadu unit of the INTUC today unanimously rejected the alliance struck with the ruling AIADMK by the INTUC state President P L Subbaiah and General Secretary Kalan, alleging that it was against its policies and rules.

A resolution to this effect was adopted at the urgent general body meeting of the State INTUC here under the leadership of State Vice-President N Nanjappan.

The meeting also resolved that a delegation would meet Dr Sanjeeva Reddy within a week, and insist on the removal of the two leaders.

The meeting also appealed to the Congress high command and the State Leadership to remove Mr Subbaiah and others from all the responsibilities of the party immediately.
