TNA to meet Modi

The Tamil National Alliance has received confirmation for a meeting with Prime Minister Narendra Modi from the Indian government, reported the Daily Mirror.

Spokesperson Suresh Premachandran told the Daily Mirror on Sunday that Modi had agreed to the TNA’s request for a meeting, issued by party leader R Sampanthan soon after the prime minister was sworn in.

“Most probably, we will go to India by the middle of next month. The dates are yet to be finalised. We will receive the final confirmation of dates shortly,” he said.

Asked by the Daily Mirror whether they would also meet Tamil Nadu Chief Minister Jayalalithaa during the same visit, Premachandran said that this had not been scheduled yet.
