Sending out a strong message to AIADMK cadres that the party will not tolerate any 'anti-party activity', 9 cadres were sacked for speaking to expelled leader VK Sasikala.

As per reports, in a joint statement by party coordinators both former TN CM Edappadi Palaniswami and  former deputy CM O Panneerselvam, warned party cadres against anti-party activities.

The coordinators were mainly focusing on party cadres from places like Salem, Kallakurichi and Thoothukudi districts for indulging in anti-party activities.

Earlier, cadres from these places indulged in phone conversations with former AIADMK general secretary VK Sasikala in which she promised to return to AIADMK.

According to reports, some of the cadres who are staunch followers of Pannerselvam contended that they are being targeted by Palaniswamy for no reason. It is said that the leaders did not call Sasikala, and it was she who had called to enquire about the well-being of people.

As per reports, Sasikala's supporters are planning to contest civic polls under Sasikala Federation Wing and reaching out to AIADMK cadres is just one of the strategies to strengthen the vote base.

Earlier, Palaniswamy had said that Sasikala's phone conversations or meeting few cadres will not have any impact on the AIADMK, 1.5 crore army.
