Ayyappan Writes to Amit Shah to Restore the Name of Port Blair
Sri Vijaya Puram, Sept. 27: The CPI (M), A&N State Organizing Committee has strongly opposed the name change of Port Blair city. Opposing the move, the CPI (M), Secretary, Shri D. Ayyappan has marked a letter to the Home Minister, Govt. of India, Shri Amit Shah demanding restoration of the name of Port Blair.
In his letter, Ayyappan said, “I draw your kind attention to the strong protests and large-scale discontent among the people of Andaman & Nicobar Islands over your decision to change the name of Port Blair to Sri Vijaya Puram. The decision to change the name of Port Blair was taken unilaterally by the Central Government, there being no demand from any quarter in these islands. The islanders here, who are innocent and have the tendency to tolerate any kind of injustice and adversity at the hands of the rulers, since colonial times, never thought of changing the name of the only town in the islands.
