Sasikala does not currently have the structure to come directly to the political arena. Sasikala was greeted on his way out of jail by a structure owned by DTV Dhinakaran before the election. But as DTV Dhinakaran’s party suffered a crushing defeat in the legislative elections, the party’s structure collapsed.
Various secrets regarding the sideline of DTV, the messenger sent by EPS, have now come to light as the audio of Sasikala speaking to a volunteer has been leaked.
Sasikala showed his strength in mobilizing volunteers when he was released from the Bangalore jail after being convicted in a property aggregation case. But Sasikala announced his withdrawal from politics in the next few days. Sasikala expected volunteers to gather in front of her house if such an announcement was made. But in total only 12 people gathered in front of Sasikala’s house. Following this, everyone forgot about Sasikala in the election campaign. But after the election, Sasikala’s political ambitions have re-emerged.
Sasikala does not currently have the structure to come directly to the political arena. Sasikala was greeted on his way out of jail by a structure owned by DTV Dhinakaran before the election. But as DTV Dhinakaran’s party suffered a crushing defeat in the legislative elections, the party’s structure collapsed. Moreover, not even a single branch secretary of the AIADMK is currently willing to sacrifice their posts for Sasikala and Dhinakaran. This is why Sasikala is targeting former AIADMK executives.
In the current context, there is a power struggle between the OPS and the EPS in the AIADMK. Sasikala, who used to release one audio daily to turn the media to her side in this context, has now increased to three to four videos. He has been in touch with many, from AIADMK grassroots volunteers to former ministers, and has begun to look into the depth of his political visit. When I spoke to one of the volunteers as the latest in this situation he asked me why I withdrew from politics and they said we would win the election and I stepped aside to say OK win. But Sasikala replied to the volunteer that the AIADMK had embraced defeat in the elections and therefore decided to fix the party.
Meanwhile, the question arose as to whom Sasikala had said they would win the election. When inquired about this by a party close to Sasikala, it is said that a messenger came to Sasikala from the side of Edappadi Palanisamy even before he was released from jail. The messenger from Edappadi kept saying that the legislature could keep quiet till the end of the election and then talk about what would happen next. Some leaders also told Sasikala not to take a stand against the AIADMK in the interest of the party. Accepting all this, Sasikala decided to temporarily withdraw from politics.
But Dhinakaran did not accept this. Dinakaran has repeatedly said that he should not accept the messengers of the Edappadi Palanisamy faction. But Sasikala is said to have said not to disturb the AIADMK in that context and also asked Dinakaran not to contest the election. But they also say that Sasikala has now cleanly set aside Dinakaran who refused to accept it. In other words, Sasikala has now stated that he has withdrawn from politics in response to the messenger sent by Edappadi Palanisamy before the election. In this situation, after the election, the Edappadi party did not give a damn and he has started the work of talking directly with the volunteers. It only seems that Sasikala is making very strong preparations to enter the political arena sooner rather than later.
