AIADMK interim general secretary and Leader of the Opposition in the Assembly Edappadi K. Palaniswami has written to Speaker M. Appavu, reiterating the position that the AIADMK legislature party had made R. B. Udhayakumar the deputy leader in place of O. Panneerselvam.
Consequently, the deputy floor leader should be included in the Assembly’s Business Advisory Committee (BAC), he said in his letter. The letter was presented by the legislature party's deputy whip S. Ravi on Tuesday to the office of the Assembly Secretary, said sources in the AIADMK.
This follows a letter given by the Panneeraselvam camp to the Speaker five days ago.
