New Delhi: After former Tamil Nadu CM and AIADMK leader Edappadi Palaniswami was elected General Secretary in the party's General Council meeting, which has witnessed violent protests between OPS and EPS factions, on Monday, former General Secretary VK Sasikala condemned the decision by saying EPS cannot dismiss Panneerselvam when his new posting is invalid.
While speaking to reporters at Pudukottai, she said that the General Council meet was invalid as it was convened arbitrarily by those with a selfish motive, said a Times of India report.

"I consider the AIADMK general council meeting held today to be a meeting that can be done for personal interest. The general council meeting held today is definitely invalid because such events should not be held when the case filed by me in the High Court is pending," expelled AIADMK General Secretary, VK Sasikala said, as quoted by news agency ANI.
"MGR started a separate party because of the wrong situation in DMK. The same situation should not happen to anyone in the party he started. He created a situation where General Secretary should be elected by the grassroots workers, now they're not working in that way," Sasikala added.
