In the ongoing tug of war for the AIADMK party symbol, the O Panneerselvam camp on Friday submitted a petition to the Election Commission requesting allotment of the ‘twin leaf’ to it for the upcoming RK Nagar bypoll.
The move comes just a day after a delegation from the VK Sasikala camp led by party leader and Lok Sabha deputy speaker M Thambidurai submitted a memorandum to the EC requesting it “not to entertain” the breakaway faction, which has staked claim to the AIADMK symbol.
