Either of the AIADMK factions headed by Edapadi Palanisamy or O. Panneerselvam could be remote controlled by BJP and the two factions will not dance to the tunes of BJP leaders at the Centre said Ma Foi Pandiarjan, former Minister and a prominent leader of AIADMK ( Puratchi Thalaivi Amma).
While briefing the media at the Coimbatore airport Ma Foi Pandiarajan has reacted to H. Raja’s statements by saying that the two factions remain independent and could not be controlled by any outside powers.
The merger of two factions is possible only with the ouster of V.K.Sasikala from AIADMK. We have put forward this demand and we are firm on our demand. And this is the only precondition we have laid down for the eventual merger of two factions, which are at loggerheads now “Pandiarajan said.
“We have not dissolved the panel which was formed to negotiate the merger talks, and the talks would continue further without any hitch.” Pandiarajan said when asked about the ongoing merger talks which have been stalled.
If l the present Government is to fall for some reason, it would not be due to our part in it but due to its own weakness “Pandiarajan said.
Pandiarajan, a former school education minister in Jayalalitha cabinet also lauded the grading system introduced in SSLC and Plus Two and opined that in the event of Amma Kitsl being distributed to school children the students would fare equally well to CBSC students. The school education department is functioning well in the past few months.
On the imminent political entry of actor Rajnikanth, Pandiarajan said that he welcomes the move and added that Rajnikanth is a good man.
