CHENNAI: AIADMK (Amma) deputy general secretary T.T.V. Dhinakaran on Friday said he was having AIADMK MLAs who act like sleeper cells. He further asserted that they could come to his side when needed. Besides, a few more MLAs would attend his North Chennai public meeting scheduled to be held on August 23, he said.
He also said "Sasikala has suggested him some plans and more operations in the party will be surely seen". After meeting his aunt and his party general secretary V.K. Sasikala at Bengaluru Parappana Agraharam prison to convey his greetings for her 63rd birthday, Dhinakaran welcomed the judicial probe announced by Chief Minister Edappadi K. Palaniswami into the death of former Chief Minister J. Jayalalithaa. He said "The probe will clear Sasikala's name in the case" and promised to co-operate for the commission if the enquiry was held properly.
On the merger of Palaniswami's faction with that of former Chief Minister O. Panneerselvam, he said the merger was being done to save the posts of a few and it would not last for long. The conversion of Jayalalithaa's Poes Garden residence would not be proper if it was done in a hasty manner, he added.
