The AIADMK General Council meeting in Chennai on Thursday rejected all the 23 proposed resolutions and announced that the one and only demand of GC members is to bring in a system of a single leadership for the party, favouring Joint Coordinator Edappadi K Palaniswami.

AIADMK Coordinator O Panneerselvam earlier walked out of the party’s General Council meeting in Chennai after it stuck to the single leadership demand and favoured his rival and party Joint Coordinator Edappadi K Palaniswami (EPS).

It may be recalled the party has been battling by an internal power struggle that spilled out into the open with calls for a single leadership for the party.

As soon as the meet commenced amid chaotic scenes of sloganeering, the process of passage of already decided resolutions were taken up.

The first of them was proposed by Coordinator O Panneerselvam and seconded by Palaniswami, who addressed the former as ‘brother’ in his brief remarks. Soon, senior leader C Ve Shanmugam who was recently elected to the Rajya Sabha announced that all resolutions “are rejected by the General Council.”

Deputy Secretary K P Munusamy said all the GC members have rejected all the 23 proposed resolutions. “Their one and only demand is for a single leadership.” When such a resolution favouring a single leadership (favouring EPS) is taken up and passed, all other resolutions would be adopted as and when the GC is convened in future, he added.

At the party’s General Council Meeting, Tamil Magan Hussain elected as the AIADMK Presidium Chairman. He was the interim Presidium Chairman until now.

AIADMK Dy Coordinator KP Munusamy was quoted by ANI as saying – all members rejected all the 23 resolutions the only demand of General committee members is on single leadership. When next General Committee meeting is convened, all these along with resolutions for single leadership will be adopted.
