Expelled AIADMK leader O Panneerselvam (OPS) called on Amma Makkal Munnetra Kazhagam chief T T V Dhinakaran and the leaders announced a working arrangement to take on both the Edappadi K Palaniswami-led AIADMK and the ruling DMK in Tamil Nadu.
As per PTI report, About six years after he severed ties with Dhinakaran, Panneerselvam joined hands with him and veteran leader Panruti S Ramachandran said a new arrangement has been finalised between Panneerselvam and Dhinakaran, resembling the alignment between the CPI and CPI(M). The move is based on the wish of party workers, he said.
Dhinakaran is the nephew of Sasikala and the duo were eased out of the party in 2017 after OPS and Palaniswami, now general secretary of the AIADMK, merged their respective factions.
