“The two-leaves symbol has been is frozen. We are all working towards retrieving it. The grass root workers and 1.5 crore party cadres want the symbol back,” Velumani told reporters on the sidelines of a review meeting on water supply here.

Stating that both the sides have already formed panels to discuss the issue, he said there was restriction to talk to media with the regard to the political development, as it may lead to more problems.
