Palaniswamy to face vote trust on Saturday

February 16, 2017 19:52

Tamil Nadu assembly secretary Jamaludeen says vote of confidence will take place on February 18.

On Wednesday, the Sasikala camp -- now led by the CM -- had claimed the support of 124 MLAs.

Palaniswami was sworn in as the chief minister of Tamil Nadu along with his cabinet after being invited by the governor Ch Vidyasagar Rao to form government on Thursday.

Palaniswami, a four-time MLA from Salem, was handpicked by Sasikala to lead the party after her conviction by the Supreme Court in a 21-year-old corruption case. The AIADMK has been battling a power tussle after Panneerselvam revolted against Sasikala last week.
