Tamil Nadu CM E Palaniswami meets PM Modi

New Delhi, Aug 11 (IBNS): Amid the chaos between the two camps of the AIADMK, Tamil Nadu Chief Minister E Palaniswami met Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday, as the latter might play a role in merging both the camps.

After the demise of former TN CM J Jayalalitha, the AIADMK was divided into camps in a bitter power struggle.
While O Panneerselvam was the interim CM of the state after Jayalalitha's death, the then AIADMK general secretary Sasikala wanted to become the CM.

Though Sasikala was later convicted in his disproportionate assets case, her fielded member E Palaniswami became the CM of the state.

Media reports said the Prime Minister might play a role to merge the two camps of the party.
