Tamil Nadu ministers discuss a possible merger of both factions of AIADMK in the absence of Dinakaran. 

Late-night discussions are back in Tamil Nadu politics after a short break. This time it is by the state's ministers.

Earlier in the day, the Chief Minister's Office asked all AIADMK Amma lawmakers to reach Chennai on Tuesday. 

As many as 26 ministers met at the Electricity Minister Thangamani's official residence on Greenways Road in Chennai since late evening.                      
A separate meeting was under way at the bungalow of Housing Minister Udumalai Radhakrishnan, in which a few ministers participated. Later, they joined the meeting at Thangamani's residence.

This has raised speculation of a new political development within AIADMK faction led by Sasikala.

Earlier in the day, Delhi Police had booked party's deputy general secretary TTV Dhinakaran on charges that he allegedly attempted to bribe Election Commission officials to get 'Two Leaves' symbol.
