Disproportionate assets case: VK Sasikala files review petition in Supreme Court

The AIDMK split into two factions after Jayalalithaa’s death as power struggle grew between Sasikala and former CM O Panneerselvam.

After Sasikala’s conviction, Edapaddi K Palanisamy was made the CM of Tamil Nadu. However, the two factions recently showed signs of reconciliation and a possible merger.

Also, as a setback to Sasikala, the Pannerselvam-led AIADMK faction has demanded that Sasikala and her nephew TTV Dinakaran be distanced from party and government.

Meanwhile, Dinakaran has also been accused of bribing the Election Commission officials in a bid to get party’s ‘two leaves’ symbol. The Enforcement Directorate also registered a case against Dinakaran in a Money Laundering case on Tuesday.
