One more rebel MLA, A Prabhu, representing Kallakurichi assembly segment, on Saturday called on chief minister Edappadi K Palaniswami and deputy chief minister O Panneerselvam at the secretariat. He submitted a memorandum to the CM seeking his intervention in meeting the demands of the constituency.

The other two rebel MLAs, V T Kalaiselvan and E Rathinasabapathy, who had supported AMMK leader TTV Dhinakaran in the run up to the recent polls, had returned to the parent party recently.

“People have given me a chance and I have to realize their aspirations in the next two years. It was Amma (J Jayalalithaa) who gave me this opportunity. I will have to deliver the promises made during the elections,” the MLA told TOI. He was appointed AMMK IT wing secretary last year, after he rebelled against the AIADMK leadership.

Prabhu said he did not associate himself with Dhinakaran, after the latter floated a party. “I should in no way harm the government established by Amma. The EPS government has announced a district with Kallakurichi as headquarters. He has implemented many projects, including a fire station, primary health centre and upgradation of four schools, in my constituency. Many more are in the offing,” the legislator said.

All the three rebel MLAs had moved the court against speaker P Dhanapal’s show cause notice to disqualify them.
