AIADMK crisis: Palanisamy likely to convene meeting of MLAs on Tuesday

Amidst AIADMK crisis, a meeting of the party MLAs called by Chief Minister K Palanisamy camp, is likely to be held here on September 5, sources said.

MLAs of the sidelined AIADMK Deputy Chief TTV Dhinakaran camp have also been invited to the meeting, party sources said.

They were tight lipped about the agenda of the meeting.

However, the meeting comes in the wake of the ongoing tussle for power between Palanisamy and Dhinakaran, even as 19 MLAs owing allegiance to the latter have revolted against Palaniswami.

The revolting legislators had told the Governor Ch Vidyasagar Rao that they had lost confidence in Palanisamy and had sought his removal as Chief Minister.
