    ‘TTV Dhinakaran trying to misappropriate goodwill of AIADMK’

    Responding to TTV Dhinakaran’s counter on the creation of a flag with former CM J Jayalalithaa’s image, AIADMK’s joint coordinator Edappadi K Palaniswami, in a rejoinder, told the Madras High Court that Dhinakaran is trying to misappropriate the goodwill and reputation of the AIADMK not only by adopting a similar colour combination of its flag but also by using the term ‘Amma’ in his outfit’s name

    Recording the submissions, Justice N Sathish Kumar, posted the case to June 3, for further hearing. Palaniswami made the submissions on the civil suit moved by the party to restrain Dhinakaran from using a ‘deceptively similar flag of AIADMK’. 

    “Use of the term Amma or the use of the bust of Jayalalithaa on his flag is nothing more than misrepresentation of the legacy of AIADMK’s eternal general secretary. The term Amma to refer to Jayalalithaa has been in vogue for decades. AIADMK has used this term of endearment and respect in its promotional materials, and for many schemes introduced while she was in power,” Palaniswami said.
