Tamilnadu CM will be decided on the floor of the house. The Governor is all set to call for the special session of the Assembly and the MLAs will decide on the CM. It could be by this week end. The attorney general has advised the Governor to test the majority on the floor of the house.
With the Governor CH Vidyasagar Rao taking some more time to resolve the issue in Tamilnadu, it is reported that Sasikala might knock at the doors of the President Pranab Mukherjee. The strength for Panner Selvam is going up by the day . The Governor is consulting the legal luminaries to find out the consequences.
AIADMK Karnataka state secretary V Pugazhendi claims they have the support of 129 MLAs. “If we don’t get a call from the Governor today. We will march to President,” Pugazhendi told media.
O Panneerselvam will be visiting the state secretariat later today. This will be hi first visit to the secretariat since he revolted against Sasikala’s move to take charge as the CM.
The Tamil Nadu political pot-boiler refuses to end with both the warring factions accusing each other of betraying the trust of late Chief Minister J Jayalalithaa. With Governor C Vidyasagar Rao adopting a ‘wait and watch’ strategy, the war of succession between Jayalalithaa’s two trusted aides – AIADMK General Secretary VK Sasikala and acting Chief Minister O Panneerselvam – has intensified.
Hours after Sasikala met party MLAs at a resort near Chennai and paraded them before the media claiming she has the numbers to prove majority in the Assembly, a senior party leader said today that they will approach the President if the issue is not resolved soon.
