All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (AIADMK) expelled leader O. Panneerselvam has preferred an original side appeal seeking a right to use the party’s ‘two leaves’ symbol and a Division Bench of the Madras High Court is slated to hear his plea on Monday, March 25, 2024.
A Division Bench of Justices R. Subramanian and R. Sakthivel would be hearing the appeal preferred against an order passed by Justice N. Sathish Kumar on March 18 restraining him from using not only the election symbol but also the party flag and letterhead.
Allowing three interlocutory applications filed by AIADMK general secretary Edappadi K. Palaniswami seeking relief until the disposal of a civil suit filed by him seeking permanent injunctions, the single judge had also prevented Mr. Panneerselvam from claiming to be the coordinator or even a primary member of the party.
