MLAs stay put in Puducherry, plan to meet Sasikala

Puducherry: Beleaguered AIADMK leader TTV Dhinakaran will be here on Thursday to meet the MLAs supporting him staying put at a resort on the outskirts of the coastal town since Tuesday, even as tensions flared up with EPS-OPS supporters protesting outside the resort against their stay.

The nineteen MLAs have also plans to meet their jailed interim general secretary V.K. Sasikala in the Parapana Agrahara prison next week, most probably on Monday.

An MLA told DC that their leader would be at the resort on Thursday to discuss the future plan of action. “Our deputy general secretary will come to Puducherry on Thursday and we also intend to meet Chinamma (Sasikala) and take her advice.”
