P R G Arun Kumar, the AIADMK MLA of Coimbatore who restrained himself from the trust vote on Edappadi K Palaniswami is now neutral a fortnight ago.He changed his mind and joined the O Panneerselvam camp a few days back.The same happened with former minister Vijayalakshmi Palaniswamy and ex-MLA from Omalur Palkappi Krishnan.
They also extended their support to OPS few days back. As OPS said, the battle over chair fight to be the chief minister is not in current now, but the war to capture the party continue.An intense competition is going on between the two factions of the AIADMK inseeking the favour of district committees, functionaries and MLAs of the party .
Now for the past few days,the former chief minister O Panneerselvam's residence is crowded with full of cadres from various districts. They in turn show their support from respective regions for the hunger strike on March 8th. OPS hopes to make the protest to demand the actual truth behind the death of late chief minister J Jayalalithaa, a show of strength.
OPS shows his personal attention to meet all these cadres and poses for photographs, clicks selfies and takes time for a chat with them.
