All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (AIADMK) party members from Coimbatore who have called it quits from the party, opposing Sasikala being elected as General Secretary of the party have floated a party called J-Deepa Peravai. Sasikala, a friend of former Tamil Nadu Chief Minister, J. Jayalalitha became the General Secretary of the AIADMK party. The AIADMK ministers have requested Sasikala to take over the post of Chief Minister.
AIADMK members who oppose this move are starting the J-Deepa Peravai all across the state. The AIADMK party members of the Kannampalayam near Coimbatore started the J-Deepa Peravai. During the new formation, one of the members said “As we don't to be lead by Sasikala, we have quit the AIADMK party and have floated the new political outfit.”
They also said that the daughter of late J. Jayalaitha's brother should enter politics. This has led to confusion among the AIADMK members as the party is functioning under two parties.
