Chennai, Mar 04: The move of expelled AIADMK leader V K Sasikala to stay away from politics has fuelled various theories on her decision while the ruling party confined itself to poll related work like holding interview for ticket aspirants.
As AIADMK headquarters here was swarmed with ticket aspirants, the party said the scenario is advantageous to it. Deputy Chief Minister O Panneerselvam addressing aspirants, cited ''succesful implementation of welfare measures'' by Chief Minister K Palaniswami.
Praising the CM, he said an ''advantageous'' situation has emerged for the party. Asked on Sasikala''s move, AIADMK leaders remained tight-lipped.

Villupuram/Karaikkal, Feb 28: Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Sunday spoke high of Tamil and its culture, calling it ''sweet'', on a day when Prime Minister Narendra Modi expressed regret about not being able to learn the old southern language.
Addressing his party's ''Vijay Sankalp'' rallies in Villupuram in Tamil Nadu and Karaikkal, an enclave of neighbouring Puducherry, ahead of the April 6 Assembly elections, Shah apologised to the crowd that he could not deliver his address in Tamil, although it "would have been nice" if he could do so.

Amma Makkal Munnetra Kazhagam (AMMK) general secretary T.T.V. Dhinakaran on Tuesday said that the All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (AIADMK)’s former interim general secretary and former Chief Minister Jayalalithaa’s aide, V.K. Sasikala, would carry on the legal battle in re-gaining her control over the ruling party.
Addressing reporters after accompanying Ms. Sasikala during her return to Chennai early Tuesday morning, Mr. Dhinakaran said that with his aunt having come out of jail, steps would be taken to hasten the process for hearing over a petition filed by her at the Madras High Court. She had challenged the conduct of an AIADMK general council meeting in which she was sidelined. In his interaction with the media, he identified her as the "general secretary" of the AIADMK.

MG Ramachandran, aka MGR, the matinee idol and former chief minister of Tamil Nadu, continues to be an irresistible presence in Tamil Nadu’s political space. The 104th birth anniversary of MGR, who died in 1987 and was fondly called Puratchi Thalaivar or Revolutionary Leader by many, was celebrated across the state on January 17. It was also an opportunity for many politicians from different parties to cherish and flaunt their memories and proximity with the late actor-turned-politician, who was probably one of the most influential film stars of South Asia as well as the only actor whose political career continues to survive even after three decades.
