AIADMK sacks cadre over Sasikala poster
Trichy:30.01.2021
The ruling AIADMK on Friday expelled Puliyur R Annadurai, a party functionary in Trichy, from its primary membership for acting against its principles.
In a joint statement, AIADMK coordinator and deputy chief minister O Panneerselvam and joint coordinator and chief minister Edappadi K Palaniswami stated that Annadurai, the party’s district representative of Andhanallur south union in Trichy, has been removed from the primary membership of the party for his action which was contradictory to the goals and principles of the party and for bringing disrepute to the party. They asked the party cadre not to have any truck with Annadurai henceforth. The action comes a couple of days after Annadurai put up posters in Trichy welcoming the release of V K Sasikala from Bengaluru prison after completing her jail term in connection with a disproportionate assets case.
The posters put up by Annadurai termed Sasikala as the general secretary of the AIADMK. He also stated that Sasikala had lived a life of penance for 33 years with former chief minister J Jayalalithaa. He was the second party functionary to be ousted for putting up posters welcoming Sasikala. On January 27, Subramaniya Raja, who was Tirunelveli district deputy general secretary of the MGR Makkal Mandram, was sacked over the same issue. TNN
