Dinakaran vows to topple TN government

He challenged the EPS-OPS faction of AIADMK to face elections to prove their claim that they support of party workers.

After being expelled from AIADMK, TTV Dinakaran has vowed to topple the incumbent Tamil Nadu government. In the general council meeting, AIADMK annulled the appointment of Dinakaran as the deputy general secretary.

In a press conference held in Madurai after the resolutions passed by the General Council, Dinakaran said, "Now I will ensure that this Tamil Nadu Government is thrown out of power."

He challenged the EPS-OPS faction of AIADMK to face elections to prove their claim that they have support of party workers.

Dinakaran also slammed the ministers who accused him of joining hands with the rival DMK. "Most ministers fear that they will lose elections, that is why they are accusing us of conniving with DMK," he said.

"It was not a general council meeting. People who have attended are not general council members. General council meet should be conducted only with the permission of the General Secretary," he added.

He further said that the government has lost the trust the people of Tamil Nadu, so the chief minister and his council of minister need to resign.

Dinakaran is said to have the support of 18 MLAs -- more than enough to topple the government in an assembly floor test.
