A 32-year-old AIADMK functionary from Thanjavur allegedly died by suicide after expressing distress over the party's electoral setbacks and urging leaders to unite under EPS.
A dispute arose when Pasupathi’s supporters sought to operate from the party’s district office, while Shanmugam’s supporters refused to hand over the keys.
Denying the opposition parties’ allegations that the TVK is engaging in horse-trading, he stated that the party would respond to this matter in the Assembly.
Krishnamoorthy told TNIE that the ruling party had lured AIADMK MLAs and facilitated their induction into TVK soon after their resignation from the Assembly.
