Sasikalas readingues, says EPS

Former chief minister Edappadi K Palaniswami on Monday said that the AIADMK cannot be defeated, even if VK Sasikala spreads lies.

He made this remark in Salem by referring to Sasikala’s claim that she gave advice on political decisions to former chief ministers MGR and Jayalalithaa. “I have clarified several times that Sasikala does not have any relationship with the AIADMK. Our party cannot be defeated, even if she spreads such big lies. She has been doing so with an ulterior motive and people are not ready to believe her,” he told reporters after distributing welfare aid to sanitary workers.

To a specific query on Sasikala’s claim that they tasted defeat in the recent Assembly polls only due to a divided AIADMK, the party joint coordinator retorted that she was there in the party even during 1996 and 2006 Assembly polls.

“Everyone knew what happened then. She has been spreading lies with a plan,” he added. The former chief minister trained his guns against Sasikala, who had been aiming for a comeback into politics after stepping aside during the polls. She had been connecting with cadre over the phone to reveal her plans to take over the party.
