Rebel AIADMK leader TTV Dhinakaran on Thursday floated a new political party, the 'Amma Makkal Munnetra Kazhagam', named after late Tamil Nadu chief minister J Jayalalithaa.
"From today onwards, we will function with a name to retrieve the great movement of AIADMK from the betrayers," Dhinakaran told a gathering on the occasion, challenging the ruling dispensation in the state. Dhinakaran and his followers often use the word "betrayers" to refer to the ruling AIADMK in Tamil Nadu, led by Chief Minister K Palaniswami and his deputy, O Panneerselvam.
