As TTV Dinakaran has been replacing the current district secretaries who are supporters of Edappadi K Palanisamy and O Panneerselvam, with his supporters for the past few days, each district has two secretaries which created confusion among the cadre.
Meanwhile, the Pudukkottai district witnessed tension since Friday after the TTV Dinakaran announced that district secretary Vairamuthu is replaced Bharani Karthikeyan, who is the brother of Aranthangi MLA Rathna Sabapathy.
Meanwhile, on Saturday, the Health Minister C Vijaya Baskar came to Pudukkottai and participated in various programmes and was also overseeing the arrangement of Chief Minister’s visit to the district on Sunday for a private function.
In this backdrop, rumours were round that the supporters of TTV Dinakaran led by the district secretary Bharani Karthikeyan plan to take custody of the party building.
As the information was spreading like wildfire, the police, in order to avert any untoward incidents, tightened the security around the party building. The police, to prevent the entry of the cadre, blocked the entire building with the vehicles and guarded around the building.
However, until news came last, no one arrived the spot.
