Less than a year after the AIADMK decided to elect its coordinator and co-coordinator by a “single vote” to retain the dual leadership system, many of its district secretaries and senior functionaries at an internal meeting on Tuesday spoke in favour of a “unitary leadership” in the party.
At the four-and-a-half-hour meeting, held at the party headquarters in Chennai to finalise the agenda for the next week’s meetings of the general council and the executive, a large number of a total of around 160 participants batted for a “single leadership”.
