My Good Work Irritated Sasikala: OPS at Jayalalithaa’s Memorial
- 5 years ago
In a move that stunned his political opponents and caught journalists and everyone else by surprise, Tamil Nadu’s caretaker Chief Minister O Panneerselvam lashed out at the Sasikala faction within AIADMK and effectively put a spanner in their attempt to make Sasikala the next Chief Minister.
After meditating for nearly 40 minutes at late Jayalalithaa’s memorial at Marina Beach, he broke his silence before the media, saying his “good work” for the state had irritated Sasikala.
OPS claimed party leaders said he had to take initiative towards making Sasikala the Chief Minister and that's how he was forced to tender his resignation.
He added that someone who is chosen by the people should be the Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu.
“I am willing to fight alone”, he said as a battle call.
