Chennai, Oct 5 (TIWN) Ruling AIADMK's Coordinator and Deputy Chief Minister O. Panneerselvam on Monday tweeted that all his decisions were in the interest of the people of Tamil Nadu and the party cadres and it would continue to be so.

He conveyed his mind through a tweet, posted after a series of meetings he had with the party’s senior functionaries in Chennai as well as at his farmhouse in Periyakulam.    However, he did not mention the CM candidate issue explicitly in this tweet. Panneerselvam, in his tweet this morning, said: “So far my decisions have been in the interest of the people of Tamil Nadu and the AIADMK cadre; it will be so in the coming days too; Whatever happened, happened for the good. Whatever is happening, is happening for the good. Whatever will happen, will also happen for the good.”  On September 28, after heated exchanges in the executive committee meeting, party’s deputy coordinator KP Munusamy announced that both Panneerselvam and Palaniswam would make the announcement regarding the Chief Ministerial candidate of the party on October 7. 

However, Panneerselvam came up with a message with just one more day in between for the announcement has caused further confusion among the AIADMK cadre as to what he actually indicates - whether he is intending to take a different decision in the coming days or he has arrived at a consensus formula for the CM candidate.  “Practically speaking if the announcement is made about the Chief Ministerial candidate now, it will create confusion in the government administration. Such an announcement may paralyse the government machinery.  So, if Panneerselvam has to take a decision in the interest of the people when the State faces Corona threat, it would be allowing the continuance of the status quo- accepting Edappadi K Palaniswami as the CM candidate and strengthening himself in the party through other means,” political analyst Tharasu Shyam told TNIE.
