Sasikala Floats New Party, Unveils Flag Featuring Jayalalithaa Ahead Of Polls

In a significant political development ahead of upcoming elections, V.K. Sasikala has launched a new political party, unveiling a flag that prominently features the late Jayalalithaa, a revered figure in Tamil Nadu politics. Sasikala, who was once a close aide to Jayalalithaa, recalled the struggles and humiliation faced by the former Chief Minister following the demise of AIADMK founder M.G. Ramachandran. Her announcement comes as the political landscape in Tamil Nadu continues to evolve, with Sasikala aiming to rally support from Jayalalithaa's loyalists and capitalize on her legacy. The new party's establishment marks a pivotal moment as it seeks to position itself as a significant contender in the state's political arena, particularly as the AIADMK faces challenges from rival parties and internal factions. Sasikala's move is expected to intensify the competition in Tamil Nadu, where political allegiance is often deeply rooted in personal connections and historical loyalties.
