Chennai district in Tamil Nadu will host a district secretaries’ meeting on Tuesday, which will be presided over by Edappadi K Palaniswami, general secretary of the All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (AIADMK). Today’s meeting is set to begin at approximately 4.30 p.m. at the AIADMK headquarters located in Royapetta, Chennai. The party’s plans for the 2024 Lok Sabha elections will be discussed at the meeting, according to party sources. The meeting will be attended by all of the party’s district secretaries.
More than 300 party cadres have already gathered at the party headquarters to welcome Edappadi Palaniswami.
AIADMK is facing its first Lok Sabha election after Palaniswami cemented his authority in the party in an internal struggle with former Chief Minister and senior leader O Panneerselvam.
AIADMK had also recently severed its ties with the Bharatiya Janata Party alleging that its state leaders indulged in statements that belittled the party’s icons and former Chief Ministers J Jayalalithaa and CN Annadurai.
The party had passed a resolution unanimously to leave the BJP-led NDA on October 2, 2023.
