Election Commission shocks Sasikala

Update: 2017-02-09 04:27 GMT
Nothing seems to be working for VK Sasikala Natarajan. At first, Governor delayed her Swearing-in Ceremony despite the support of MLAs citing the Supreme Court judgement in the disproportionate assets case. Caretaker Chief Minister O Panneerselvam revolted against Sasikala taking advantage of the delay. And now, Election Commission disapproved her elevation as the General Secretary of AIADMK.

AIADMK MP Sasikala Pushpa has filed a petition with Election Commission against Sasikala's appointment as General Secretary. EC sought an explanation from AIADMK over the violation of norms.

EC made it clear there is no post saying temporary General Secretary in the law of AIADMK. It opined rules have been floated to elevate Sasikala to party's top post.

The clarification from Election Commission hints Sasikala Natarajan have no authority to sack O Panneerselvam as an AIADMK Treasurer or party member.
