Congress – DMK split

The Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu Mr.Karunanidhi announced that he is going to support the UPA government from outside, as the talk with the Congress President has been failed. He wanted Cabinet posts for Azhagiri, Dayanidhi Maran and Kanimozhi.
Meanwhile the Congress was keen that they are not going to give Union Ministery for T R Balu who was the Minister of Shipping, Road Transport and Highways and for D Raja who headed the Communication and Information Technology.
Congress is likely to give 3 cabinet post for Trinamool Congress who have 19 MPs under them. So DMK wants to treat them at par with Trinamool Congress.
It seems that Mr.Karunanidhi wants to see both his children in the Parliment or either none.
