VK Sasikala factor: AIADMK asks cadres to take vow in ‘Amma’s name’ to guard party

Chennai: Wary of the VK Sasikala factor, the AIADMK asked Monday its cadres to take a pledge, in the name of J Jayalalithaa on the former chief minister’s birthday February 24. The cadres have been asked to light a lamp in their houses, to guard the party. While the ‘test’ of Assembly polls is round the corner in about two months, enemies and betrayers have joined hands to defeat the AIADMK, top party leaders O Panneerselvam and K Palaniswami said in a letter to cadres.

Vowing to retain power for the second time in a row, they said such ‘anti-people’ forces must be taught a lesson again by vanquishing them through hard work, unity and allegiance to the party.

Palaniswami, co-coordinator and Chief Minister and Panneerselvam, coordinator and Deputy Chief Minister, however, did not explicitly name anyone.

Their call to cadres assumes significance against the background of the recent return of expelled leader VK Sasikala to Tamil Nadu from Karnataka and her nephew Amma Makkal Munnetra Kazhagam leader TTV Dhinakaran’s stand to ‘retrieve’ the AIADMK.

Panneerselvam and Palaniswami asserted that the loyalty of AIADMK workers cannot be ‘purchased’ through any manner be it allurement or by hurling accusations. The cadres’’ allegiance is only towards late matriarch Jayalalithaa, the AIADMK and people, they added.

By lighting a lamp at 6.00pm February 24, they should offer prayers to Jayalalithaa’s ‘atma’ and take a vow in her name to protect people and guard the AIADMK till their last breath, they said.

Sasikala is late AIADMK supremo Jayalalithaa’s confidante and she returned here recently after serving a four-year prison sentence in Bangalore following conviction in an assets case.

Loyalty is only towards late Jayalalithaa, the AIADMK and the Tamil Nadu people, Palaniswami and Panneerselvam said. ‘Amma’s soul’ would protect the AIADMK and punish through the path of righteousness those trying to work against the party interests they said, which is seen as a reference to Sasikala and Dhinakaran camp.

A civil suit by Sasikala and Dhinakaran, who were ousted from the party in 2017, is likely to come up in a court here next month challenging decisions of the present leadership of the AIADMK.
