Puducherry, Jan 8 (UNI) A large number of AIADMK volunteers and MLAs were arrested today when they attempted to picket the Assembly to press their demands.

Among the MLAs arrested were A Anbazhagan, Om Sakthi Segar and Omalingam.

Their demands included immediate implementation of schemes announced by Chief Minister N Rangasamy in the Assembly Budget session like provision of free colour television sets and unemployment allowance.

Mr Anbazhagan, AIADMK state secretary, told reporters that if the government still failed to initiate measures for launching the schemes, the party would organise a 12 hour bandh here.

Earlier, party volunteers assembled at the Anna Square and took out a procession through the main thoroughfares of the town to reach the Assembly buildings.
