However, the AIADMK leaders pacified the sulking seniors and resolved the meeting, sources said. A few MLAs have also opined that the party seniors should burry the political difference as the civic polls are nearing.

The political dissent and infights have become common in AIADMK, thanks to ousted leader VK Sasikala who continues to be a controversial person for the party, sources said.

According to sources close to Sasikala, the former AIADMK general secretary is also planning to hold the party general council to counter the executive committee meeting called by AIADMK leaders Edappadi K Palaniswami and O Panneerselvam on December 1.
