EPS Calls AIADMK MLAs Meet After Being Elected As Interim Chief

Edappadi K Palaniswami was elected as the party's interim General Secretary at its General Council meeting after an order by the Madras High Court.

Days after being elected as an interim general secretary of AIADMK and ending the leadership tussle with rival O Paneerselvam (OPS), Edappadi K Palaniswami (EPS) will hold a meeting with party MLAs on July 17, according to the sources.

The meeting will be held at the residence of EPS on Chennai's Greenways Road.

Notably, EPS was elected as the party's interim General Secretary at its General Council meeting held on Monday after the nod by the Madras High Court.

Earlier, the Madras HC rejected a plea by OPS and allowed the general council meeting, which proposes to revive the interim general secretary post and abolish coordinator as well as joint coordinator posts to be held.
