Remove Sasikala's portraits from AIADMK HQ; OPS faction

"The portraits of Sasikala should be immediately removed from the party headquarters to uphold its sanctity," said E Madusudanan, the 'Presidium Chairman' of the faction in a statement.

The senior leader's demand came a day after his camp sought removal of Sasikala, her nephew and deputy T T V Dinakaran and their family members from the AIADMK prior to merger talks with the other faction led by Chief Minister K Palanisamy.

The Panneerselvam camp had once again raised its demand for a CBI probe into the death of former Chief Minister J Jayalalithaa.
