AMMK senior leader Thanga Tamilselvan has said the Bharatiya Janata Party will bring down Edappadi K Palaniswami from the post of the Chief Minister and will make O Panneerselvam as the CM. Speaking to the media, he said Panneerselvam, who had made his son O P Raveendranath Kumar to win from Theni Lok Sabha constituency, had ignored Periyakulam and Andipatti Assembly constituencies.
AMMK, led by TTV Dhinakaran faced a huge defeat in the Lok Sabha elections and by-election conducted to 22 Assembly seats, results of which were declared on Thursday. Following this, without naming Dhinakaran, Palaniswami and Panneerselvam said in a statement that those who had 'drifted away' from the party due to the 'illusions created by selfish individuals' should return to the AIADMK.
