Trichy:
DMK leader and deputy chief minister
Udhayanidhi Stalin on Sunday dared
AIADMK general secretary Edappadi K Palaniswami to re-induct AIPTMMK leader V K Sasikala into the AIADMK.
Campaigning in Mannargudi, Udhayanidhi pointed out that Sasikala had endorsed his recent criticism of Palaniswami, in which he had stated that Palaniswami betrayed her after becoming chief minister.
Udhayanidhi later campaigned in Thiruthuraipoondi, Nannilam, Nagapattinam, and Poompuhar.
In Nagapattinam, Udhayanidhi alleged that the BJP and Prime Minister Narendra Modi are attempting to gain a foothold in Tamil Nadu after forming governments in other states. "They are trying to control Tamil Nadu through Palaniswami. However, Tamil Nadu has always remained 'out of control,'" he said.
