Beleaguered Sasikala, who is convicted in disproportionate assets case and serving sentence in Bengaluru’s Parappana Agrahara jail, seems to have got yet another major shocker. Sasikala’s trusted lieutenant and considered her proxy E Palaniswamy, the CM of Tamil Nadu, seems to be disowning Chinnamma. Apparently, EPS has ordered for the reshuffle of IAS and IPS officers that were not approved by Sasikala. AIADMK’s deputy general secretary and Sasikala’s relative TTV Dinakaran met his aunt Sasikala at Bengaluru central prison on Monday, and he reportedly got the list of transfers cleared by her. The list was said to be prepared by the members close to Sasikala’s family.
According to reports, Sasikala-approved list of transfers of bureaucrats was sent to CM Palaniswamy but the CM said to have refused to accept Sasikala’ list. This is now seen as a set back to Sasikala who is already battling with several others. Palaniswamy reportedly turned down her list and said to have issued his own list thus to make his own mark in the government.
This is not all. After winning the trust vote in the Assembly, EPS set a new precedent by not visiting the Bengaluru’s central prison. Apparently, Sasikala-approved reshuffle list mentioned that chief secretary Girija Vaidyanathan will be replaced with the present Finance Secretary K Shanmugam who’s also good officer. But CM Palaniswamy apparently said no to move as Girija’s removal may further defame the government. This is not all. EPS is reportedly got a strong feedback from the ground zero over Sasikala’s episode and hence he’s distancing away from her.
Also, the fact that the local body elections would be held on May 14, EPS is acting swiftly to win people. Is Palaniswamy rebelling against Chinnamma Sasikala?
