Chennai: Rebel AIADMK leaders V.K.Sasikala and TTV Dhinakaran have approached the Madras high court to restrain members of the other faction led by Chief Minister Edappadi K.Palaniswami and Deputy Chief Minister O.Paneerselvam from holding the organizational posts of the party.
Justice C.V.Karthikeyan, before whom the suit filed by Sasikala and TTV Dhinakaran came up for hearing, ordered notice, returnable by November 29, to Edappadi Palaniswami, E.Madhusudhanan, S.Semmalai and Dindigul Sreenivasan.
The judge also directed AIADMK headquarter manager P.Mahalingam to submit the details of bank accounts maintained by the party and persons authorized to operate them by November 10.
In their suit, they also sought several reliefs including the one to declare the resolutions passed in the September 12 meeting organized by the other faction expelling them from the party as illegal and void.
They also sought to restrain Edappadi Palaniswami and Paneerselvam from operating the bank accounts of the party as only Thanjavur MLA Rengasamy who was appointed as the treasurer by the general secretary Sasikala was entitled to operate the accounts. They also sought to restrain the other faction from conducting general council meeting of the party.
