TTV Dhinakaran no astrologer: Jayakumar
Chennai: Denying there was any disagreement between Chief Minister Edappadi K. Palaniswami and Deputy CM O. Panneerselvam, the Fisheries Minister D. Jayakumar said TTV Dhinakaran is no astrologer to predict early elections.
“There is no disagreement between them. A consensus is prevailing among them and they are working like brothers, in our Amma’s government,” Mr Jayakumar said in reply to a question on the difference of opinion between the two leaders that is doing the rounds.
“We are all pulling the chariot in unison. You (media) and opposition parties are trying to derail by creating such an impression, and there is no truth in it (on rift). The chariot, symbolising the rule and party as well, is being taken forward by 1.5 crore AIADMK cadres. We will not allow anyone to yank the axle or remove the chariot’s wheel,” Mr Jayakumar said and added that Dhinakaran is not an astrologer to predict early elections to the Assembly. The AIADMK government would last its full term.
