A Sting Operation conducted by a National TV Channel exposed the lobbying done by VK Sasikala Natarajan and O Panneerselvam to woo the MLAs ahead of Trust Vote in the Assembly.

South Madurai MLA Saravanan: 'While Sasikala offered Rs 2 crore to each MLA initially, O Panneerselvam promised to pay Rs 1 crore. At one stage, Sasikala got ready to pay Rs 4 crore for each Legislator. They offered Me Rs 6 crore. MLAs Taniyavarasu, Karunasu and AK Bose were given Rs 10 crore each'.

Post the revolt of O Panneerselvam, VK Sasikala Natarajan shifted all the MLAs to the Gold Bay Resort. Saravanan escaped from the resort in disguise. Later, A police complaint has been lodged by him alleged he was forcibly taken to the resort by Sasikala's Coterie.

Sources say, Saravanan might have revolted after Tamil Nadu CM Palanisamy failed to offer him the promised amount. This revelation has irked both Sasikala's Camp & Panneerselvam's Camp.
