“Chinnamma” Sasikala to be the Next AIADMK General Secretary

From O Panneerselvam to Thambidurai have voiced their support for “Chinnamma” to take over the reins of the party.

Ten days after the death of former Tamil Nadu chief minister and AIADMK supremo Jayalalithaa, party spokesperson C Ponnaiyan said that it is clear that her close aide Sasikala will be the next party general secretary.

Speaking to reporters outside the MGR memorial, where Jayalalithaa was laid to rest, Ponnaiyan on Thursday said, “It is the desire of the entire party that Chinnamma should become the general secretary.”

He went on to say, “Chinnamma has functioned as the conscience of Amma”.
