Ministers' sweat it out to escape reshuffle

 

In fact,  the  usually media shy AIADMK ministers are now vying with each other for publicity, with their aides and PR teams sending late night updates on ministers’ programmes.

 

Both the AIADMK government and the party are focused on monsoon relief works. The list of new state level party office-bearers can be expected once the rain recedes. Siimilarly, induction of new ministers is another unconfirmed report among our party members, admitted an AIADMK legislator. 

 

The opposition DMK has already listed the poll managers for all districts,  including Chennai. There are also some party posts which need to be filled up before the elections. Even mission 234 campaign that kick started early this week has been slowed down as Amma has dispatched ministers to monitor rain relief in coastal districts”, the source said adding that district secretaries and ministers are working round-the-clock to ensure that their names are not in the party supremo’s hit list.

 

“Yes, it is a fact that party workers are awaiting inclusion of old-timers like Nainar Nagendran, C.V. Shanmugham, K.A. Sengottaiyan and D. Jayakumar and at the same time existing district secretaries are now working overtime to safeguard their posts, particularly in Pudukottai and Vellore districts”, a party senior said.  Ministers sweat it out for their political future, the source

 said.
