To pay the monthly salary of DMK MPs for Sri Lankan aid

India’s Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK) members of Parliament will donate their one month’s salary towards aid for the crisis-hit Sri Lanka, the party said.

This follows an appeal from Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M K Stalin, also president of the ruling DMK, for donations to help the Sri Lankan people, even as the party has already announced 10 million Indian rupees towards this purpose.
