Telangana Governor Tamilisai Soundararajan on Monday moved the Madras High Court seeking to withdraw a case that she filed against DMK’s Kanimozhi who defeated her from Thoothukudi in the April 18 Lok Sabha elections.
Soundararajan, who took over as Telangana Governor on September 8, said that she does not wish to fight the case since she has taken up governorship.
In her petition, Soundararajan, who had lost to Kanimozhi by more than 3 lakh votes in the Lok Sabha polls, had said that a case has been filed against Kanimozhi and Anitha Radhakrishnan, the DMK MLA from Tiruchendur, for giving money to women who had taken 'aarathi' for her.
