A day after the Theni district unit of the AIADMK adopted a resolution to readmit V.K. Sasikala and T.T.V. Dhinakaran into the party, the Edappadi K. Palaniswami camp on Thursday reached out to the AIADMK coordinator, O. Panneerselvam, to put brakes on the decision.
A source said former Minister from the south R. B. Udhayakumar and a few other leaders had a closed door meeting with Mr. Panneerselvam for over three hours in Theni. Former MP Parthiban, Theni AIADMK district secretary Syed Khan, Murthypandian from Vasudevanallur in Tenkasi district, and Namadhu Amma editor Marudu Alaguraj were among those who attended the meeting at Mr. Panneerselvam’s farmhouse.
The AIADMK coordinator, who interacts with journalists regularly, refused to take questions on Thursday. However, he said, “Give me sometime, I will address a press conference soon,” and left for Bodinayakkanur with his followers.
