June 05, 2017 22:11

Ousted All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam deputy general secretary TTV Dinakaran on Monday said that he will just sit back and see what the party led by Tamil Nadu Chief Minister Edappadi K Palaniswami is going to do in coming weeks, over the speculated merger with the faction led by former Chief Minister O Panneerselvam.

"They are just talking and talking, nothing has happened in past 45 days. I came and told this to our general secretary (Sasikala). She told that they will be given two months of time. Let them complete the merger, we will give them time. After that we will take action as per the instruction given by our general secretary," he said after meeting his aunt VK Sasikala at a jail in Bengaluru.

He further said that the MLAs of the AIADMK have no fear in their mind and hearts expect for few, and rest are taking the power of general secretary in their hands.

Earlier in the day, Dinakaran reached Bengaluru's Parappana Agrahara jail to meet Sasikala who was jailed in February in a disproportionate assets case.
