The two factions of the AIADMK, lead by Edappadi Palaniswami and O Panneerselvam, have finally merged, isolating VK Sasikala and TTV Dhinakaran.
Even as the merger was delayed by a few hours, and both camps went back and forth, Dhinakaran had a parallel meeting at his Adyar residence in Chennai.

Hitting out at OPS and EPS, AIADMK spokesperson CR Saraswathi, a Dhinakaran supporter, said:
Saraswathi further added that the two factions had betrayed Sasikala.
Nanjil Sampath, another AIADMK leader who has been a TTV Dhinakaran loyalist said, “Finance Minister D Jayakumar is calling us cheats. He should remember that when he had no position or portfolio, it was Sasikala who ensured that he became the minister for fisheries. Who is a cheat now?”.
