COM.V.A.N.Namboodiri, Advisor, AIBDPA  has met the top officers in DOT on 2nd May,2014 and pursued the issue of 78.2% IDA merger and demanded early settlement. The officers have replied that the clarifications sought by the Department of Expenditure is being finalised.

However nobody has given any definite date as to when it will be sent to the Department of Expenditure, which means the buerocrats are playing the game of delay tactics purposely.

AIBDPA is committed to wage further agitations on this issue once the Loksabha elections are over.
